Picture of us in the airport..
Josh and I have been so blessed to be able to travel a lot this year. New York City has been on our bucket lists for a long time. I went there when I was younger, but Josh had never been. I also have to admit, that I was young enough that I was pretty much afraid that I was going to be killed at every corner, which sort of put a damper on my trip. I have heard people say how much they loved NYC and always wondered why I didn't have the same experience. This past September, we had the chance to take a trip to the Big Apple
Our first day in New York was really a night. We got there late in the day, but dropped off our stuff and headed out. We stayed in a hotel just off of Time Square, which was SO much fun as we pretty much were on Time Square lots every day. There is such an energy and excitement to Time Square, although I have to admit, I still have no desire to ever be there on New Years. Please excuse the horrible photos, there are all from Instagram.
Can you believe all of those people? It was packed all day every day.
It truly was so much fun. Josh and I are big people watchers (okay I am the people watcher, and I show them to Josh), and Time Square was the perfect place to be for People watching!
I also have to say that we were starving when we got there, so we headed out looking for some food. We didn't want to go to any chain restaurants, but wanted to find something unique to New York. We found a pub called "The Playwright Tavern," that was super yummy. It has actually been my experience that pubs usually have great food.
That first night we just pretty much walked all over the place. As I said before I was such a chicken the first time we came here, and this time I felt so comfortable and fine with everything (walking around at night wouldn't have been on my list of things to do before). We stayed where there were lots of tourists and enjoyed seeing the sights. We saw Radio City Music Hall, Rockerfeller Center, 5th Avenue and lots of other places.
