NYC...

We have been traveling like crazy. I never imagined that I would travel around NYC and DC. Skyler has been doing interviews and I have been trying to decide if I could live in a big city.

Skyler's interviews have been going well. I have started to like the city life...I may in fact be a city-slicker in disguise. I can't decide, I do for some reason find it a compliment when Skyler calls me a hippie! Maybe I will be a yuppie!

We spent this last weekend in NYC. Skyler had interviews on Friday, so I just entertained myself at the ritzy shops like Anthropoligie and Coach. I felt like I had to wear a nice sophisticated outfit just to go window shopping!

Friday night was a dream come true! We went to a quaint but classy restaurant and had fancy dinner. Then we went to Les Mis on Broadway. It was AMAZING! There is nothing like Broadway. After the show we walked along Broadway and Time Square. It was fantastic.

Saturday we went to Little Italy, Chinatown, and to Brooklyn Heights. We walked across the Brooklyn Bridge and found the chocolatier the Lynn raves about, Jacque Torres. Now I know why she loves it so much. It is delicious. We ate dinner at a small restaurant in Little Italy, the waiter was quite a flirt. Then, like the crazy people we are, we walked all the way from Little Italy to our hotel in uptown Manhattan. It was great to see everything and "soak in" NYC.

Sunday we were able to go to church and it was actually held in a chapel inside the temple. It was neat. You step off the subway and all of a sudden you look up and see the temple. We also walked around Central Park and went to Serendipity (a restaurant from the movie Serendipity). It was great to spend so much time together and to explore NYC together. Who knows, maybe it will be our home for a few years.

Sorry to not have pictures...I will post them soon, but I have to have them put onto a CD.
