A Week in the Big Apple

I just got back from one of the most exciting weeks of my life. If anyone's been to NY they know what I mean when I say that NYC is almost unreal. There is so much to see and do and it's almost impossible to take it in all at once. You're pretty much in a state of shock for the first few days or until you ride a NY subway elevator that smells strongly of urine. Ewwwwwww! My sister Channing was so generous to let us stay with her for the week and she was our favorite tour guide. Thanks Chan and we love you.

Here's my photo journal of our trip, enjoy:

Mylee on a real police horse (cool!)




Russel Crow, yea that's really him!

Oh my goodness I am incredibly jealous that you went to N.Y. I have wanted to go there for so long, did you get to see any Broadway plays if so which ones? Thats awesome that Channing is there too, is she going to school or working?
