New York City 10/2012

We are starting to plan a possible vacation this year.  It got me thinking that I should start posting some of my previous trips.

We went to NYC in October 2012 and I'm just now getting around to posting about it.  Below are some of the trip highlights:

DEFINITELY buy your reserve tickets in advance!  This will save you from waiting in a 2 hour or longer line!!!
