525,600 steps

So today we basically explored the whole city on foot.


We woke up this morning at noon (heh heh) and took the subway up to 88th street and the Guggenheim.  Still just as awesome as it was the last time I went!  Then we took a little trip through Central Park down to the Metropolitan Museum (which we didn't go in but will definitely be revisiting).  Then more Central Park across to UWS to see the Manhattan temple.  It's so crazy that it's just in the middle of a big old city.  It was gorgeous though! Then we walked all back to 7th avenue and down towards Times Square where we ate the biggest sandwiches you've ever seen at Carnegie Deli.  Then to TS for Disney, Forever 21, and the M&M's and Hershey's stores.  After about 5 hours of walking and exploring we finally, you know, came home, where we had to climb up four flights of stairs to get to our little stuffy apartment.  Woo!  Long day. Super tired.  Here, have some pictures.


So here's where we walked, just to give you an idea.

 Ooh, and what could that be?


The Guggenheim!


Reservoir in Central Park

The Met

The Manhattan LDS temple

This was a church I'd never heard of



Carnegie's Deli - HUMONGOUS sandwiches and amazingly delicious cheesecake

Magical Disney store


Okay, so here are some pics of our aparment/building area


Courtyard on the way in

Creepy 2 1/2 foot hallway inside the door

We have to go up 4 flights of these

Home sweet home

Yes, that is greenery and an adorable fire escape outside our window

Bed and TV and stuff

Exposed brick wall (LOVE)

Itsy bitsy kitchen area (did they really need to add tile there?)

Three locks for extra security
