Ahhhhh! We made it. And it's awesome (I'm quite articulate). Haha. Yesterday we made the 4.5 hour drive from D.C. to New York City. Actually pulling into New York happened so fast I almost missed it! I looked up and all of the sudden in front of us was the famous view you always see in movies.... you know the one looking down on the city from across the water? It was just there! Then we crossed the bridge and there we were.
We drove through the financial district to Pace University and dropped off the students on our bus that are working there. Then we continued through manhattan up to 113 and Broadway which is where I am staying (upper west side of Manhattan).
Last night we ventured on to the subway... explored the village (whatever that really means).... and found possibly the cheapest, neatest, most asian bar in New York. :)
A few things I've noticed: The buildings are huge. I mean I know in movies they are and everyone says they are, but actually standing next to them is something different. There are people everywhere, at all times! And there is construction all over the place!
Also, Central Park is only 5 blocks from where we are staying!!
