Well, it's been a few days since our return from New York City but wanted to recap a few highlights of our trip. We got a later than expected start because our JetBlue flight was delayed for 3 hours thanks to heavy fog at JFK. We couldn't complain too much, because after all, Jan's cousin who works for JetBlue hooked us up with buddy passes. So, we got to Shelley's apartment in Manhattan at 3 in the morning. Ouch!! That kind of shot our first half of the next day so we could sleep and eat.

First Day (2nd half):
- Statue of Liberty
- Ellis Island
- Ground Zero
- Rockefeller Center (got our picture in front of the tree. this place was crazy crowded.)

Second Day:
- Walked through Central Park
- Went to the MET
- Went to the top of the Empire State Building
- Went to Macy's (8 floors! I sat on the floor while Jan looked at coats.)
- Had an awesome dinner at Whym with Shelley and her boyfriend

Third Day:
- Met up with Adam and Sarah in Chinatown to do some purse shopping (interesting experience. felt like I was on Alias a couple of times.)
- Had lunch in Little Italy
- Saw the Rockette's Christmas Spectacular at Radio City Music Hall
- Got tix for Chicago at TKTS for half-price
- Saw Chicago

That's our trip in a nutshell without too many details. It was a really busy time to visit but it was so much fun! We're really thankful we had the chance to make it happen. Many thanks to Shelley for getting us there and for putting us up while we were there.
