Hello from NYC!

Well, NYC is a BLAST! Last night(wednesday) we got the the hotel by 6 after three hours of flight delays, but the ride from the airport gave us our first taste of the big apple. Our driver seemed like he couldn't go fast enough, or cut off enough other cars, or honk enough!
After getting checked in to the hotel and finding our room on the 21st floor, we headed out to get a feel for the city and find some food. We decided to go to a highend restauraunt and found that we had never heard of anything on the menu, and I mean it. Rebecca ended up getting flat noodles with mushrooms, cheese and some other stuff that we had never seen before, anyways, today we met up with my friend and got up to the 9th floor of a building to watch the parade and it was spectacular! The crowds were loud and so were the marching bands. The view was great and everything was really undescribable.
We went to rockefeller plaza and up to the top of the rock(top of the building). The view was like nothing else. The skyscrapers seem endless and you can see the statue of liberty out there, and central park and the empire state building. It is great.
We just got back from a broadway play called Million dollar quartet, about sun records and elvis, johny cash and some others. It was very very good as well. Well we are going to get some sleep now so we can get up early to get to the today show.
