New York, New Yooork...what a wonderful town!
Well I'm back from New York City...delayed going there....misplaced luggage...and delayed coming back..anyways...that out of the way...the trip to NYC was overall a good time....landed on Thursday and checked out Grand Central Station..Rockefellar centre...the United Nations headquarters..Times Square...and had my first slice of New York pizza..mmm delicious...
friday was a bust because there was a massive snow storm..and there was about 20 inches of snow in the streets...clever me decided to leave her winter coat and boots in T dot...so by about 3pm I wa
s walking around the city in sopping wet socks and shoes...nevertheless..still tried to make it out on the staten island ferry to catch a glimpse of the statue of liberty..and what a glimpse it was! downtown nyc was just a cloud of white...and the statue of liberty was barely visible through the storm...ah well...after arriving back downtown from 
staten island...we (N and I) headed down to ground zero which was really overwhelming..but they've started construction on the site now which is good... 
friday nite we headed out to a japanese restaurant Aja...really cool place...they had fish tanks under the floor so you could see them as you walked..and a massive buddha fountain with gobs of money coming out of it...lol very cool...
so the saturday after the massive snow storm was not fun....in our attempts to make it to the St. Patty's Day Parade on 5th avenue...our shoes got soaked so we decided instead...to head down to Soho to find some boots...and we found them! 
saturday night we head out to a caribbean restaurant and I had fabulous ackee and saltfish...mmm i've been craving it so long....then we head out to a pub to get our st. patty's day celebrations on! don't ask me why there was a moosehead in the bar... 
apparently shrek also comes out to visit on St. Patty's Day...

sunday the weather finally started to clear up and i headed out to the empire state building....then hit up a Sex in the City Tour with A in the afternoon....followed by a broadway play Avenue Q...and late-night chinese food in China Town...fun-filled eh?
recognize that last picture? yep....that's us sitting on Carrie Bradshaw's stoop...smoking ourselves some marlies....mmmm....my last day there i headed up to central park for some scenic shots...then FINALLY made my way home...after a 4-hour delay and 6 hours of sitting in Newark international airport i was completely miserable..only to be cheered up by a little indie rocker boy I chatted with on the flight back...hurrah for cute little indie rocker boys who come to the rescue!
