Broadway Bound

Sean and I took our FIRST trip to NYC in September...We both had talked that New York was the first place we wanted to go to when he was out of residency and we finally got our act together and went. We had a fabulous time!! Lots of walking, eating, shopping and people watching!! We also arranged to meet some childhood friends of ours, Liz and Dena, for a drink. We also met up with my cousin, Caroline and Mike (hubby), for a drink as well. It was great to see all of them!! We attended a Yankee game (Sean a longtime fan), hit Canal Street, the original Macys, ate in Little Italy and was in awe of the bright, craziness of Times Square....Did you know Ann Taylor Loft is even in Neon on Broadway. Strangely enough, we didnt see one famous person......

derek jeter...i think he got a hit on that one...

our seats were FABULOUS!! and it was a perfect night!

watching batting practice...which we almost missed due to the subway!

times square at night
times square by day
st. patricks cathedral....jfk was married and buried here
ground zero....AMAZING sight...it is unbelieveable how large it is down there. you get a whole new perspective on the rescue and then recovery efforts from 9-11. we could only imagine how difficult the clean up was and now the rebuilding. we were there 9-22...only weeks after the anniversary, there were flowers everywhere...so sad.

notice the red crane
there are people working past it which you cant see in the above picture because they are so far away....that is how big the area is
a tribute in bronze just adjacent to the site. This wall is also a wall to Ladder Co 10, which is right there.....
