Big Apples

Well, Erin and I made it back from our big trip to the big apple. We had a fantastic time. When it was all said and done we were pretty tired but we saw a ton and had a blast.
We got to the city Friday evening and walked over to Times Square to see what all the fuss is about. Just about what you would expect. People everywhere and lots of lights. It was neat to see but the best part of this hike for me was the pizza. Stumbled across a hole in the wall pizza place that was fantastic. Top 3 pizza I have ever eaten. I have no idea what the other two are but 3 just seems about right. No, we didn't get any hot chocolate!


The view from our hotel room. Aside from the obnoxious billboard it was great. No hot chocolate in the hotel room either.

First stop on the insane, whirlwind, freezing cold, non-stop, whirlwindy, non-hot chocolate drinking day around the city. 6:30am at Rockefeller Center.


The "The reason we went to NY" stop. NBC. Got to see the whole deal and actually made it on T.V.. It was fun and worth the early alarm clock. Well, except for the Dunkin Donuts coffee. Shoulda got the hot chocolate.


Traded some picture taking in Central Park with some Frenchies. We only knew they were French because they kept saying "We we, huh huh, we we." Well, that and the thin mustaches and berets. I tried to ask them for directions but I didn't know how to say hot chocolate in French.

We saw a movie star in Central Park. Erin thought I was being rude taking a picture of her but I did it anyways. She was that one lady that was in that movie with that other guy...you know. I think the movie had something to do with hot chocolate.

Spent a lot of time down here. We took some good advice and got a day pass that took us all over the city. It was quite a memorable experience seeing all the different subway stops and riding all the different trains. Best part was walking up the stairs at each stop and not knowing what you were going to see. Kept hoping for a hot chocolate vendor but no luck.
We did one more thing decidedly touristy. We heard they had hot chocolate so we went to the top of the Empire State Building. Aside from the INSANE lines from beginning to end and the fact that tall buildings give me the willies, it was an amazing view. Really amazing. Oh, and there were 80 mph winds out there too. That was helpful to my nerves. Had a very calming effect. ...no hot chocolate.


Our crazy day came to a close with a wonderful sunset next to the ol lady. It was a quite a way to finish our day. If it wasn't zero outside we might have stuck around longer to enjoy it. From here we went to a very tasty hole in the wall place called Supper. No idea how the heck we found it since there was no sign anywhere. Good thing we had the address. Once we got there the curtain in front of the door almost didn't let Erin in either. This place REALLY wanted to keep itself secret. It was good though. Warm food in my belly was just what I needed.

I know I missed a bunch of stuff we did but there was almost too much to remember. It was a great time and loved spending it with my lady. Maybe next time we go we can get some hot chocolate.

The pizza place: was it like a hallway with a service counter on one side and a dining counter on the other side?

It was a hallway with a serving counter on one side and a dining area in the back. Probably not the one you're thinking of.
