Welcome to New York City

Our shocking arrival in this great big city. We were wide eyed as we turned the corner to Time Square. Our first sight after getting off the bus.
It was really a bit overwhelming and exhilerating. The first night we just walked around aimlessly and wowwed out. It gets dark by 4:30 so it seemed to be night most of our trip.

Overall we found people friendly and very helpful when we were looking for the right train, bus or street. Lots of honking though:) Sometimes it felt like being on a movie set. It was a very memorable trip and what a great time of year. The temperature never went below about 36 during the day and it snowed once but didn't stick.

What a trip! I don't know if I could deal with all the people...don't they have somewhere to be??? The shows sound pretty great. What a memorable trip! Can't wait to see you in a couple of weeks.

Time Square is similar to Vegas' strip but a lot more crowded. I would of loved to spend more time at Time Square. So much to do and see.
