Empire state and other New York shenannigans

Today we went to the ultimate tourist stop off, the Empire State Building! Yesterday we visited Becca's dad's work building in New York and he took us to the top floor so we had a pretty awesome view of the Empire State.

I'm keeping my photos promise!
We met up with Annie's sister Emma and her friend, who happen to be in New York too! And we had a tourist party in the Empire State (Becca didn't come as she is a real live New Yorker and it would be wrong).
Here are some photos of other places we visited in the city:
The view from the Empire State building

Croton dam, which is reeeeeally cool
Grand Central station! We saw a new film called Arthur being filmed here, and missed out on seeing Russel Brand by a few minutes! Grr


Annie and I -The view from the top of Bear Mountain near Becca's town

FOR EMMA! We went into a massive toy shop that had a HUGE barbie section, with twilight dolls! 

Me, Becca and Annie in Times square...this place could literally fuel a small country.
New York is TAAAAAAAAALL

Brooklyn Bridge! 
So these are just a few of the photos of places we've been, it's awesome here! 
So tomorrow there's a hurricane coming...YAY...should be interesting, so we'll be welcoming 'Earl' in the morning, but he should only bring rain and a bit of wind hopefully so we probably won't die or anything. Good news.

  2. Loving the photos. For a brief moment whilst looking through them I forgot that I am sitting in my bedroom in boring ole Hitchin. For that I can only thank you. Ha and thanks for the special dedicated photo, maybe you should make that a bloggly feature? Just an idea. Regardless I hope you brought me Edward back hey? We could tie him over the door in the porch to guard over us all from intruders. I'll get working on a cardboard prototype.

    Croton does not look like something out of the blair witch project (disappointment).

    Also, LOVE the omission that you missed seeing Russel Brand despite the last blog saying you saw him, hmmm? I'm gonna report you to Offcom.

    WHAT IS A TOURIST PARTY? A large group of tourists having a good time, chillin' with da hunnies, drinkin' some bud?

    I HOPE EARL IS NICE. Lots of love x

    (Just to clear this up early on so everyone knows where they stand, yes I will be commenting on every single one of your entries like the KEENO that I am)
