SATURDAY
OK things didn't go too well at the beginning of our trip to New York .... hehe I'm not gonna write about our arguments tho lol. But anyway ... it was a heck of a long drive from Boston, Mass. to NY. We drove through an unfamiliar state called Connecticut??? lol .. but yeah ... it felt great tho once I read the sign Welcome to New York... I was like... OMG... slap me... coz this is a dream... a dream... come true...

We passed by where JLO used to live.. the Bronx.. not a very safe looking place i must say lol... Thank God it was daylight. But anyway, Gio wanted to check in to the hotel first... so off to another state we go.. This time, in New Jersey. Oh yeah... we fought again on our way there but we made up as usual. The hotel (Double Tree) was effin nice. Our room overlooks the city and the airport. hee hee nice. I heart hotel rooms. But anyway... we were getting ready to go to NY and suddenly... this announcement saying that we had to evacuate the building came on... so 9 flights down the stairs we go... and yeah... it wasn't anything serious as expected.. so finally were off to...New York.

STATUE OF LIBERTY
We see this iconic lady all the time; in books, pictures, movies... and seeing it in person is truly an experience I will never, ever, ever forget. We had to go through security check's before we board the boat to get to the island. The ride was great.... seeing New York and the Lady Liberty from what I think is the Hudson River was incredible... and sharing the moment with Gio was just perfect. The statue is HUGE!!! I'm soooo amazed.. I still can't believe that it was there... standing right in front of me.. WOW! I bought a statue to remember the day I saw the Statue of Liberty...

Tolls:
New York and New Jersey is soooo freakin expensive... Why??? You have to pay for toll fee's like every 5 minutes.. You have to get a ticket from the 1st toll and then pay at the second... GAH! its was like $5 if you have a ticket.. and a $1 if u do. I feel sorry for the people who drive there... hehe its better to take the subway..

Time Square:
Right after we left "Stats-su of Liberty lol, we headed straight to the city to see RENT on broadway ::YIPPIE:: ... we got there and then GAH!!! my jaws dropped... I stared in amazement... soooooo many lights, so many people, so many yellow taxi cabs... we were in Time Square... but yeah... we were running out of gas at that point... thank' God we found the theatre in time.. and decided to park the car and worry about getting some afterwards.

We went to eat and it was just amazing how much people are there... we judged, we made fun, we lust... at the people walking by. I can watch people for hours... but off the the show we go...

After the show... we saw more of Time Square and other things we always see on television and pictures that we hope to see in real life. I have so much more to say... but I'll keep my emotions to myself... I felt happy.... I was overwhelmed... I felt loved...

SUNDAY:
I had a great night. My feet hurt tho coz of the new shoes. New York again for this day...

Ground Zero: It was an emotional moment...
Brooklyn Bridge: I hope I got a good photo of it lol...

Giant X'mas Tree: we saw where they usually have it
Flea Market: I hope that's how u spell it.. so many cheap souvenirs
Me and Gio: in the place of my dreams... Priceless....

Second day in New York was just was great and painful to my feet as the first. To this day... we still couldn't figure out where Carrie Bradshaw lives and what happened to Andre? I had fun buying 5,000 I heart New York shirts and souvenirs and visiting 5 million shops. I heart holding Gio's hand as we walked the sidewalks of New York and seeing everything together. It's a time that I will always remember... I HEART NEW YORK!
