NYC Day 2

We checked out of our hotel and set out to accomplish as much on foot and by tour bus as humanly possible before heading back to NJ that evening.

We had a bagel breakfast at a deli near the hotel...

...and ate at small park. The birds aren't shy!





The Flatiron building


Ground Zero reconstruction




Our heads are hiding the Statue of Liberty in the background. Maybe I can Photoshop her in.

Views from the Staten Island Ferry


Hot dogs!




Rockefeller Center



The Today Show set

Christie's


More pizza!

Central Park. Anyone seen the movie "The Brave One"? I think this is where the filmed the beginning of it

If you are on Facebook, go to the blog (gervens.blogspot.com) for some video of Jews playing Frisbee! :p

NYC Day 1

We took the bus into the city from NJ and walked to our hotel from the port authority terminal.


Giants Stadium


Couldn't resist snapping this one for Lexi. :)





My mother bought us a night at Ink 48 Hotel in Manhattan. Thanks so much, Mom! We loved it.

We took a night time bus tour of the downtown area and Brooklyn. Many of the photos I won't be able to post until I get home and can photoshop them first since they are so dark.
The famous ball that drops every New Year.

The Empire State Building lights up different colors depending on the occasion.

The view of the Manhattan skyline from Brooklyn was amazing
Took this for Dave and Jared.
