Steph and I got up this morning and ran along the river walk. It was sooo fun to see the city across the river and watch everyone headed back and forth into town. The perfect way to start the day.
We had a busy day seeing all the things that we wanted to see. First stop was the Rockefeller center and up the tower to the lookout. It was AMAZING to see everything from up there. We spent so much time picking out different landmarks that we knew and trying to figure out what all the other ones were. The view was sooo cool and it’s incredible to see the size of New York City.
Also fun to see what else is at Rockefeller square: the Today Show, ice skating rink, Jimmy Fallon and so many other famous spots that we’ve all seen on tv.
We left Rockefeller square and made our way up to the temple which is about 25 minutes north walking. We stopped at a few spots to look along the way but then we’re so glad to make it to the Manhattan temple. Pretty amazing to have such a peaceful spot in the midst of a loud and busy city. We loved being there as a family and had such a great session together!
The rest of the day was spent doing all the best things you could think of in New York: shopping, eating good food, people watching at Times Square, and walking all the famous streets and stopping at all the trendy stops. Only on a girls trip can wandering around the city with not much of a plan be fun!
We finished off the night on Broadway seeing the play Come From Away. It was INCREDIBLE. I loved every minute of watching those talented people up on the stage. It’s a play based off of a book about the town Gander Newfoundland that hosted all the planes that had to land after 9/11. It was a beautiful story of how those people opened their lives for a few days to take care of 38 planes full of stranded people. We all loved it!

It has been such a fun trip to be together and talk and laugh all day long. Love these ladies so much!
