Girls' Trip to NYC!

At the end of April, my sis-in-law and I took a quick girls' trip to NYC.  It was a whirlwind weekend filled with lots of sight-seeing, and shopping!  Oddly enough, we were there when they closed Times Square because of a bombing gone awry.  We were only two blocks from the action, but didn't know what was going on at the time.  After we got back to our hotel from seeing a Broadway play, we turned on the news, and couldn't believe we were so close to a terrorist attack! 

Here's some of the other things we did:
  • Went to Empire State Building
  • Shopped on 34th St.
  • Saw Chicago
  • Bought knock-off purses in Chinatown in this scary basement
  • Went to Times Square
  • Ate in Little Italy
  • Went to church in the same building as the temple
  • Went on a TV and film bus tour (much to my embarrassment)
  • Went to the Metropolitan Museum of Art
  • Went to the Museum of Natural History
We did all of that and more in three days!  It was so fun, and I can't wait for our next trip!
