On Saturday, I left with a group of colleagues at 4am to spend 12 hours in New York City. I adore New York and have spent the past few Christmases there, but David had never been, so I made it my mission to show him as much of the city as possible.

Here is our adventure by the hour:

10AM: Quick coffee break outside of the Empire State Building

11AM: The Statue of Liberty and Financial District

12PM: 9/11 Memorial

1PM: Cafe Napoli in Little Italy aka Heaven on Hester Street

Here’s a cannoli.

Here’s the cannoli approximately 3  minutes later.

2PM: Frolicking in Central Park

3PM: The Plaza Hotel

4PM: F*A*O Schwartz

5PM: Times Square

6PM: Rockefeller Plaza

7PM: Shopping in Bryant Park

8PM: Macy’s

And coffee break #4.

9PM: Madison Square Garden

Are you tired after reading this?  Because I was exhausted at the end as well.  But the NYC trip was definitely a success!
