NEW YORK CITY BABY!!!

Well, Mark and I just got back from the best trip EVER! Better than Cuba, better than Dominican---NEW YORK CITY. Probably the most exciting part of the trip (for those of you that don't know already), Mark and I got engaged in Central Park. The first picture here is taken about 10min after he popped the question:) Very exciting! This happened about mid trip. We had so much fun--it was the most jam packed 6 day trip ever. I took lots of pictures but these ones give an idea of some of the great things we did.

Engagement pic.
Top of the Empire State Building the first night we were there. Pictures do not do it justice. It was breathtaking. Weird, it doesn't even look like we're that high up in this picture---when you're there you feel on top of the world. You can see something like 40 miles away---crazy.The second day in NYC it rained all say so we took the opportunity to go to the Museum of Natural History---it was very cool.For those of you that know how much I LOVE bluejays, you can imagine my dismay when they had one stuffed and pinned to the wall!Real quahog shell.... St.Patricks Cathedral

We rubbed the Wall St. bull for good luck:)OK, so on Thursday we went on a Sex and the City tour. For those of you that love this show, this tour was DEFINITELY a highlight of the trip. It was a 3 1/2 hour tour around NY taking you to and showing you lots of places that were on the show. This of course is Carrie Bradshaw's apartment stoop. Mark and I at Aiden and Steve's bar on Mulberry St. --Cosmo's in hand!
Me being foolish.
Mark and I at Rockefeller Centre.Ground zero:(
Our hotel was 1/2 a block from Times Square. This is me waiting for the Lion King to start.
I'm not even going to try to explain The Lion King becauase I don't think I'd do it justice, it was so amazing I loved it.My FIANCE!Oh, ya, so a couple friend of ours also went to NYC when we were there so every evening we would hook up and do dinner with them. On Thursday night we went on a 3 hour dinner cruise around Manhatten, it was sooooo much fun. The city was so beautiful at night and we cruised right up close to the lit up Statue of Liberty----I think that this is a must do if you go to New York.
Danny, Pam, Mark and I on the ship.Mark took this lovely picture of Danny and Pam on the boat deck-how romantic.....
