New York, NEW YORK!!!

That's right...We went to NYC for the weekend!!!




For my mom's birthday, my dad, Tom, and I surprised her with a weekend trip to New York City. They flew to Montreal on Saturday (she knew she was coming to Montreal) then we whisked her away to NYC. She was super surprised, and all four of us had an amazing weekend.

We took the commuter train in,








and rolled into Grand Central Station.




Then we visited the Rockefeller Plaza (with the skating rink and all),






hopped the subway to Central Park,



and made our way to Ground Zero of the World Trade Center.

(No pic warranted.)



We had a NYC hot dog from a street vendor (how could you not?),






went up the Empire State Building (86 floors!!),







shopped at Macy's,



cruised Madison Ave.,






then.....



Took a cab through Times Square (note the neon NYPD kiosk)





to get to our dinner cruise that circled the Statue of Liberty, went under the Brooklyn Bridge, etc, while we dined and danced!







Awesome trip!
Happy birthday mom - thanks for spending it with us!!
