It's Up To You New York, New YOORRKKK!
Wow - so Craig and I just got back from our New York trip.
This trip started with a delayed flight out of Houston, putting us late for our connection at DFW, meaning that by the time we rode the skylink about a mile to our gate area, we literally had 6 minutes until the plane was scheduled to take off. We sprinted about 500 feet to our gate where the ticket guy was yelling "COME ON, COME ON - WHAT ARE YOUR LAST NAMES?" "GO GO GO - THEY'RE WAITING ON YOU!!"
It was so much like a movie, it was ridiculous.
We then had five days in New York, where we went to the Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, Chinatown (I got a killer "Dolce and Gabanna" bag!!), The Lion King on Broadway, Times Square, the NBC Studios (including the SNL set and the Conan O'Brien studio), Radio City Music Hall, the Ed Sullivan Theatre/David Letterman studio, Central Park, FAO Schwarz, - we totally played the life-sized piano from Big - the Trump Tower, the Empire State Building, Hello Deli, St. Patrick's Cathedral and Yankee Stadium. We made our way around New York on the subway, managed not to get lost and not to die. I consider that a successful trip.
Our trip even ended with an emergency landing when a passenger got sick on the flight. The person was ok by the time we landed, so again - success.
We had an amazing trip, got autographs from Rupert at Hello Deli for our parents (he's the guy that's always on David Letterman, and my parents love him), and may or may not have seen Lucy Liu. Seriously.
Oh, and I ate fallaffel (falaffel? fallafel? How do you spell this word??) for the first time from a street vendor and LOVED IT. If you haven't tried it, you should. Like today. Do it.
So yeah - no doubt, I'll be posting pictures as soon as I have had time to sleep.
