New York, Day 1

We left Salt Lake City at 12:05 AM and had an uncomfortable direct flight to JFK. I was dead tired, even after sleeping all of Sunday, but got little sleep :( Jenny and Chad were late to get us, but that wasn't their fault. We met this cool girl waiting for the train, she came from California but is originally from Holland. Nice girl. The train came and we parted ways...finally got to Brooklyn, where Jenny and Chad live, and it was so cold I almost died. No really, there was this icy wind that blasted us and I wanted to giveup. Apparently it's not common, but welcome to New York anyway, right?




We had breakfast and then dove right into the thick of things. 2 subways later, we were at the Time Warner mall and strolling through Central Park. We hit up the cooooolest toy store ever, FAO Schwartz, and explored more of 5th Ave. We had lunch at this *awesome* Cuban place, seriously, so delicious. We went to the Rockefeller Plaza and went to the Top of the Rock. It was freezing.




Then we finished up at Grand Central Station. My favorite part was the market inside. We came back home and crashed. Then we had pizza for dinner, yum :)




New York is not for the faint of heart! I gave up trying to fit in almost as soon as we got here and I couldn't keep from gaping. One girl asked me which train we were waiting for, and I was like, um...I don't know. Haha. It's so cold, so cold, so cold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
