New York Part 3

The City. I love the City but by the end we were tired of all the people and the expensive prices. Here are some of my favorite pictures we took on the trip.

Trinity Church, Wall St and the New York Stock Exchange, Bank Street in the Village by the Magnolia Bakery

New York Part 2

Steve and I went to so many museums. Some we're better than others but all we're memorable. Here is some of the great art and things we got to see.

Unfortunately the Guggenheim prohibited photography above the ground level but here we are inside the rotunda.

At the Met we saw lots of cool modern art, here is Steve with a Warhol and a Georgia O'Keefe, also my favorite sculpture, Brandisi's, Bird in Flight. The Met has lots of cool impressionists pieces and a great photography area but those were under construction so we couldn't see them.

The Museum of Modern Art was definately our favorite. Her are 2 Picasso's and a Chagall.

There was actually a huge swarm around the Starry Night and it had its own security guard, Go Van Gogh! More Warhol and the tree is Klimt.

More of the Modern Museum of Art, me looking at a Pollock, some graphic print I loved but didn't remember to look at the artists name and this huge wall art, also forgot the name.

Steve and I definately loved this museum the best!

New York Part 1

Steve and I had the luck of going to New York City for our honeymoon. We had so much fun and really got to see a lot of the city since we were there for nine days. Our hotel, the Hotel Pennsylvania, was located in the heart of midtown right across the street from Madison Square Garden and a couple of blocks south of Times Square. We were also right next to the subway so getting around was a piece of cake.

Our first day we spent in Brooklyn and it was so much fun. We went to the Brooklyn Museum or Art and the Botanical Garden. We saw lots of quaint tree lined streets, something right out of the Cosby Show, good pizza at Grimaldi's and a lovely sunset walk across the Brooklyn Bridge. What a great frist day.

Steve and I on the Pier at the base of the bridge, it really is such a wonderful walk

Street in Brooklyn Heights, Steve and I at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden, Japanese Pond. Grimaldi's Pizza, yummy, coal fired pizza with fresh mozzarella and basil.

Steve at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. The cool exhibit at the museum showing how they store all their permanent collection. Very Cool.

VIVA LAS VEGAS

Steve and I went to Vegas a couple of weekends ago for a concert. Its nice to know that so close to home can be found rip off of european treasures.

Oh wait is that the Rape of the Sabine? The Giambologna masterpiece?

We also saw cool butterflies (not related to european treasures)

I love my husband
