Sunday morning we had breakfast "on the way" out of town which turned out to be way out of the way once we finally got the right address in the GPS. Anyway, after countless hours in traffic, we finally got through the tunnel, out of New Jersey and into Manhattan. It was mom and Rich's first time in New York, so we headed straight for Times Square. Next, we rode the subway down to Battery Park, where Rich hoped to find some dead bodies like they always have on Law and Order. Sadly, we didn't discover any criminal activity there, so we boarded the Staten Island Ferry for a sunny cruise past the Statue of Liberty and back. Wall Street, Chinatown and finally Little Italy were our next stops. We now highly recommend the deep fried calzone from Sal's Pizza if anyone is planning a cheese-cation any time soon. We taxied back up to the hotel and then stood in the hellishly long two hour+ line at the Empire State Building, but the views of the city at night were worth the wait. Autumn had to go to bed early again in prep for the big test, but Mom, Rich and I went back to Times Square to see the lights. Again another night of too much fun, and staying up way to late!
How cute!
Us in Times Square
According to TV, it's the crappiest place in NY!
NYC!
Lady Liberty!

Me and Mom
The source of all evil! muhuhuhuwahhahaah!
Inviso-building!
Little Italy was packed!
Tiny cupcakes!
Although the sign would lead you to believe otherwise, this store did not, in fact, sell cigarettes. Also, the candy selection was rather poor.
An incredible sunset!
