Snapshots from New York City: Day 1.

Note: I did not tote along my big camera so these pictures were either taken with my little point-and-shoot or my iPhone.

I took this just after I stepped out of the taxi. I love the city!

We stayed in a wonderful little boutique hotel just off Times Square

Our room was lovely and very quiet

I got to the airport early (THAT never happens) and was able to get on an earlier flight. I arrived before Robert was done with work so I stopped for a manicure and then walked around Times Square before meeting him at his office

IMGP4488
Robert and I walked to Rockefeller Center and watched the skaters for a bit

IMGP4491
We stopped and bought some souvenirs for the kids at the NBC Store (a
Heroes poster for Dots and a shirt from The Office for Hockey Boy)

IMGP4500
We enjoyed a good dinner at a restaurant called Gonzo on a beautiful little street in Greenwich Village. My lowlight pictures of the street and the interior of the restaurant were awful

Coming tomorrow: We visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art and Robert's twin brother and his wife arrive...
