Day 4 in New York

Saturday morning we went to the Manhattan Temple. When you get off the subway you can't even tell it is the building on the corner. It is really hidden but beautiful. In the picture on the bottom right corner that is the subway stairs, and through the trees is where the Temple is. We took some family names and it was a good experience.

Steve took the day off work to show us around for the day. He took us to this AMAZING pizza place for lunch called GRIMALDI'S. We waited in line outside for about an hour and I was worried it wasn't going to be worth it. However it was and I mean it. I'd wait in that line again and again and again. They don't make pizza like that here in the West. If you ever go to New York this is a must do. Great food, fun experience and it's in Brooklyn. COOL!


This was the coolest door and bike. I had a tone of fun shooting it and then playing with it in photoshop.
The Brooklyn Bridge was so neat. We walked across it and took tons of pics here are a few of my faves.
After the play we went to a Jazz Club by Steve's house called "Cleopatra's Needle". We ate cheese cake, humus, and french fries (ramdom assortment of foods I know).
The music was really good and the whole time I kept saying how they trumpet player was really outstanding. I was so impressed by him. Come to find out it was Wynton Marsalis! He composed alot of the music for the PBS series "The War" and has a tone of albums out. If you have never heard his stuff get on itunes and check him out.

STEVE thanks for a awesome day we had such a great time. Also THANKS for letting us stay with you!

How fun! I absolutely loved NY when we visited. Our preference though is Chicago for obvious reasons. :) We are staying here for Thanksgiving, but are coming home for two weeks and Christmastime. Hooray! The fam can't wait to see Rachel.

We love Pappa Grimaldi's Pizza! Every time we go up to New York to see Abe's brother we go there, it's the best. Looks like you guys had a blast. I still have never seen a show there though. That is our next big thing we will have to do.
