The Big Apple - Day 1

Tim and I made it to NYC safe & sound. After we checked into our hotel (Tim booked not only the same hotel where we stayed for our honeymoon, but he also booked the same room!), we headed out! We were famished from not eating breakfast or lunch, so we had lunner (kind of like brunch, but with lunch and dinner) at our most favorite Italian ristorante ever - Angelo on Mulberry Street. I have visited NYC three times within the past 5 years, and have eaten here every time! It's AMAZING! Best Italian Food EVER!
We did some sightseeing in Little Italy and found this most beautiful cathedral. It's the Old St. Patrick's Cathedral and the pic below is the view from the pew of the altar.

It's even more breathtaking in person........

We then booked it 1 1/2 miles to West Village to delight ourselves with an infamous cupcake from the Magnolia Bakery on Bleeker Street. YUMMY! They also have another location on 6th Street for all of the tourists in Times Square to enjoy.

We took the subway to Times Square and took a lot of pics just like every other tourist in NYC.

And then made it back to our hotel room to watch the The Office. Here is our view from the hotel room.

All in all, it was a good first seven hours in the Big Apple. Tomorrow we are going to go on The Sopranos tour, eat at Sardy's, and go see a Broadway show to end our day. It's going to be busy so I need to get my rest! Good night!
