The Manhattan Temple
The Brooklyn Bridge
Val, my college roommate, who lives in Brooklyn.
The Brooklyn Botanic Garden and my friend's adorable girls
The Met
A couple highlights from our "highlights tour":
Marble Sarcophagus dating back to A.D. 260–270
"Between Earth and Heaven"
from Africa, made out of aluminum bottle caps.
Van Gogh
The Museum of Natural History
Incredible places to eat:
Serendipity
They sat us at "the movie" table, (see below).
Our table wasn't marble, but sat in the same location so I guess that counts.
Look at the size of their menu!
Frozen Hot Chocolate!! Best thing on the menu, hands down.
Rosa Mexicano Restaurant. They make the guac fresh to order, table-side.
The Shack Shack In Madison Square Park.
The most amazing hamburger, fries and custard.
We even found an awesome Korean place where Nate enjoyed
using his Korean and blowing away all the natives as they listened to an American rattle off Korean. Some people were asking if he was from Korea. Haha. :)
We saw awesome architecture:
The Flatiron
The Dakota Building
A stroll through Central Park
Strawberry Fields at Central Park
Statue of Liberty
Wicked at Gershwin Theatre
Top of the Rock
And finished it up with a Yankees vs. Red Sox game.

I don't think you told me you were just in NY!
Thanks for posting, I think we will have to check out some of those places, especially the restaurants when we go in a few weeks.
That looks like it was an amazing trip. How could anyone not love NYC? How fun that you got to enjoy some time with just the two of you.
F-U-N!!!!!
Wow- looks like you guys really packed in the activities! What a fun trip, looks like you both had a great time. I'm looking forward to our cruise! Only 3 more months!
Those pictures were great! Looks like you guys had a fun time.
Looks like so much fun! I am so glad you saw Wicked! Great show!
I love NY too. Looks like you had lots of fun together. Did you go up in the Staue of Liberty? I thought that was a little disappointing.
Wow! What a fun trip Holly! Looks like a lot of fun. Glad you were able to see Val. Miss you guys!

Me too....
What memories this post brings back for when Kelly and I spent a few days in the Big Apple as we celebrated our 20th anniversary. You got some excellent pictures and it looks like a wonderful time alone with your sweetheart!
You guys covered a lot in your trip, and I'm impressed you made it to the Shake Shack- not many tourists go there. I'm so sad we weren't there to see you guys! Looks like some fun though!
I really enjoyed your New York pictures and all the others, as well. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
I was interested in your report of the BYU game in Dallas. Our son Brian and his wife Misty were also there. I'm not sure you'd recognize each other if you were to meet. Brian works for a construction management firm, and one of his clients invited them to fly from Salt Lake to Dallas on his private jet to see the game. They said it was quite an experience.
Love,
Dianne
