NYC

I’ve been to NYC in the summer but never in the winter. Every December I say I’m going to go and experience the NYC Christmas spirit, but it never happens. So this year, we finally did it. The city truly is magical around the holidays; there are lights everywhere! The weather was a tad bit chilly for this So Cal gal, but we managed. Here are some highlights from our trip.

 Rockefeller Center 

View from Top of the Rock

Times Square

 Carrie Bradshaw’s door steps

 By far the best pizza we had was from Bleecker Street Pizza. Uh-maz-ing!

 NYSE

 Freedom Tower

 9/11 Memorial; so, so sad

 Inside the 9/11 Museum 

 View of the Brooklyn Bridge

 One of the window displays at Bergdorf Goodman 

 Inside the Plaza Hotel

 Carriage ride through Central Park

We saw A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder which was really funny. If you want to see a Broadway show, I recommend it!

Out of all the sightseeing we did, my absolute favorite was Central Park. I could literally spend days just walking around it and taking in all its beauty. It honestly looks like a painting. Coming from LA where we don’t have any seasons, there were colors I’ve never even seen before. It is truly magnificent.
