New York City!!

Well it's about time that I put pictures up of our little vacation to NYC!!! We left on Saturday after we took the dog to " Day Camp" which is what Adam and I like to call it, but to them it's really doggie JAIL!!! We dropped them off then headed to Trenton. We caught the train to Penn Station then we headed off to Laura's house! When we got there it was only hours before the show so we went and got a snack at a place called Milk and Cookies, it was AMAZING! You could make your own dough, kinda like Marble Slab for cookies, it was GREAT. Then we headed off to the show.
We saw In the Heights, it won the 2008 Tony for best show, it was really good, it was about people in the Washington Heights part of the city. It's kinda like Spanish Harlem, it was REALLY a great show. After the show we had reservations at Craft, Tom Caliciao's( Top Chef) restaurant. It was amazing food, everything was served family style, where we got probably one of every appetizer and pretty much everything on the menu, including 2 bottles of wine!:) It was good food and good times. After the dinner we went to Adams' parents hotel Bar area, and Laura, Adam and I got beers.
Sunday morning, we had reservations for a champagne brunch cruise around Manhattan, it was a beautiful morning, and the sail was great, good wind but not to much. Of all the times we're been to NYC, we finally got around to seeing the Statue of Liberty, and following the cruise, we went to see ground zero, because Laura's office building is right next door. Not much has happened on that sight in almost 7 years, it was kinda sad, but they have started so that's good. Overall the trip was a great get away before school starts for Adam:) We hope to make it back up to the city soon, because Laura knows of a store that sells nothing but peanut butter products!!! YES! Here are some pictures..
