Day 2:
Church/ Manhattan Temple

Mark, Justin, & I all headed to church at the LDS temple in Manhattan on Sunday. Such a neat building, the chapel is actually not part of the temple - the temples doors are closed and you go up a separate elevator. Collette was a champ and waited for 2 hrs in the freezing cold in Time Square trying to get us discount Broadway tickets - however her efforts were in vain. They only had crappy seats for lame shows. But she still gets awesome points for trying to get them for us.
Ground Zero/ New World Trade Center

It was so different from when I was here 6 years ago. The hole is gone, the rubble, the large amounts of posters and pictures and flowers. But it is neat to see the great memorial being built and the beautiful new building.
Occupied Wall Street

Collette & Justin were in New York when this park truly was occupied. They said it was cccrazy packed with lots of students representing the "99" - they also said it was a magnate for all the other interesting folk in the city that weren't really sure what they were occupying - but hey it made for good entertainment. Now there are loads of cops blocking any tent cites from being built.

Central Park/ Shack Shake

Shack Shake's Chocolate Malts = Yum
Natural History Museum


Again you could be here for days, we just hit a few highlights before it closed
Empire State Building

Waiting in line for the really long elevator ride..... They of course have you wait in the gift shop.
