Regina in the City

Day two was a full day in the city checking out MOST of the famous landmarks of New York which pretty much = a great day. 



Flatiron building

Our tour guide.  She carried this light sabre
so we could find her in the crowd.  I am glad she
was a Jedi and not a Sith.

Jennifer and I with the Empire State Building

This was taken in the St. Paul's Chapel.
1.  I loved this quote.
2.  The story of this church during 9/11 touched my soul.
God shows his might every where, every day.

The new Freedom Tower at Ground Zero

This tallest skyscraper was beside St. Paul's across from Ground Zero.
It is HALF as high as the WTC was.
Just looking up at it and trying to picture it twice as high was nothing less than dizzying.

Central Park from Top of the Rock at Rockefeller Center.
It was the closest I got to Central Park.
In the far distance there is Harlem.
I didn't make it there either.

The ball in Times Square as seen from Top of the Rock

The view from Top of the Rock artistically enhanced
Love it.

St. Patrick's Cathedral from Top of the Rock.
When we were in St. Patrick's there was a wedding going on.
Everything in the cathedral was beautiful

Chrysler Building.
The gold part at the top is made from recycled hub caps.

Holla for the awesome-ness of Barbie.
I squealed like a little kid in Toys R Us Times Square

Statue of Liberty out of Legos

Me with Jack Sparrow Lego style



The second show we saw was Sister Act.
Singing was amazing, but not my favorite.
The gorgeous chandelier at the Sister Act theater.
This is the second time in NYC I got in trouble for taking a picture  I wasn't supposed to.
