New York, New York

We spent a little time in New York City while we were in the USA. We were there for the earthquake but didn't feel it. And we were in DC for the hurricane, but we did have travel delays because of the storm since we were ultimately flying home through JFK. (side note: I saw Michael Moore at the airport Monday when we were catching our London flight!) We got to Manhattan and pretty much made a beeline for 30 Rock, pictured below (we're huge fans of the show).In the next photo you can see the Statue of Liberty between us (no, we didn't have time to go up--and we couldn't have taken Gavin anyway). Unfortunately you can't really see Gavin in the photo. In the next photo Jacob is sampling some of the famous New York pizza. In the next two photos, Gavin and I are in Central Park; and Gavin and Jacob are in front of the US Stock Exchange on Wall Street.Just a few more: the Brooklyn Bridge (with scaffolding) and Brooklyn; the bull in the financial district; skyscrapers in Manhattan (you can see trees on top of one of the buidings); and the Empire State Building.
