Just Arrived

The plane ride to New York City was so exciting. We flew into Jersey and saw the beautiful skyline we had been so anxious to see. We got off the plane to 30 degree weather and realized we weren't in California anymore. We hopped into a cab right away and headed to our hotel. We arrived at the hotel to a very cold Brittany and Rob waiting to greet us. We were surprised to see that our hotel was directly across the street from Madison Square Garden. We didn't waste any time roaming the streets. Our first stop was Times Square. We were intrigued and amazed by all the lights and sounds. We were happy to sit down and have a nice meal with Britt and Rob. We ate right in the middle of Times Square. It was beautiful! After dinner we continued to walk and site see. We passed by the NBC studios store and walked in and made a B-line for all the FRIENDS memorabilia. On our way back to our hotel we passed by the famous New York City Library, the one where Carrie almost got married at in the Sex and the City movie. It was gorgeous! The four of us walked to the Empire State building and parted ways. Brandon and I then attempted to go up to the top. We were told it was going to be freezing up there and it was! The wind chill was almost unbearable, but we braved it because it was an amazing feeling being at the very top. It was a great way to end our first night there!
