NYC with Marian Day 2

We started off the day right with delicious acai bowls before heading on the subway
 to Battery Park

We took the ferry out to the Statue of Liberty. So cool!



The views from the statue's pedestal were great!

Not a great picture but we opted not to wait in the line of 1 million people to get a picture with the iconic Bull on Wall Street

Possibly the best food we had all weekend.


We spent the afternoon at the 9-11 museum walking tour. Apparently this is the only picture I took. The fountains are such a beautiful memorial. One stream of water for every victim that died in the attacks that day. The rose means it is that persons birthday that day.


Levain cookies did not disappoint. I "accidentally" ordered one of every kind and the chocolate chip walnut was the winner by far.


After cookies a little souvenir shopping, we made our way to Columbus Circle for Dizzy's Jazz club at Lincoln Center. The musicians were amazing. The views of Central Park in the background were amazing. The style of jazz was a little too free-form for me but the experience overall was so cool.

I think the pictures from the Jazz club are on Chad's phone which means we may never see them...but you never know.

After the Jazz club we went to "Top of the Rock" at Rockefeller square. The views!!!! So cool to do it at night!






We were all ready to get in bed and watch a movie (or BYU football game if your name is Chad) and eat the left-over Levain cookies but we made a quick stop at Bryant Park on the walk home because it was just so charming!


Chad stayed up to watch BYU win their game, Marian and I watched about 1.5 Psych episodes before falling asleep with cookies in hand. It was a great day!
