I really enjoy writing this blog and posting pictures, but unfortunately my computer fried. and I cant access this site at work... good old firewalls : ) So now I'm borrowing a computer from Mike's work, but I cant really upload my pictures on it. Because I keep hearing whining about how I havent updated, I'll steal a few pictures from Mike from our trip to NYC after Christmas.
The first 2 pictures are from the "Top of the Roc" aka, Top of Rockefeller Center. It was about 10/11pm when we were up there. If you travel to the city and want to see the skyline from way up high, day or night, I recommend Top of the Rock. The Empire State Building had at least a 2.5-3 hour wait every day we were there to just buy tickets... not including wait time to actually get up top. Rockefeller center is only maybe 10-15 stories less (dont quote me on that... its possible that I'm totally making up numbers. Actually... I KNOW I am making up the numbers. I dont have a clue. But when youre that high up whats the difference?) The thing I like about Top of the Rock too, is that youre only a few blocks from Central Park, so you can see the whole park from a birds eye view. I cant wait to go back and go during the day! Hopefully maybe the fall? Can you imagine the colors!!??
The last picture is of Mike and I on the Brooklyn Heights Promenade, with the lower Manhattan East Side behind us. This is my favorite place in the city. When I lived in New York for my internship, we would go "promenading" quite regularly, and at all times of the day and night. I drank beer and ate deli sandwiches there, went there at 5:30am on july 29, 2005, in other words I was up VERY late on my 21st birthday, and I waatched NYC fireworks there. It is beautiful. Brooklyn Heights in General is B-E-A-UTIFUL!
Thats all for now, I'm taking a free community education class at one of the schools I teach at about Money management. WOOHOO!
