Around NYC

I've already put up a couple of posts about our trip to New York this spring, but I've failed to show many of the city sights (mostly because everybody's seen them). So, here's a picture of us standing in Brooklyn with lower Manhattan in the background. We could also see the Statue of Liberty, but we never got very close to it.

We also went to a taping of the Late Show with David Letterman. We got the free tickets by anwering a trivia question about the show over the phone while still in Idaho. We were really surprised by the Ed Sullivan Theater. It looks pretty big on T.V., but in person, the place is tiny. We had front row seats right next to the band. The guest that night was Richard Geer which we weren't thrilled about, but the show was still very entertaining.

This is the famous St. Patricks Cathedral. Honestly, this place rivaled most of the gothic cathedrals I saw while in Europe. Very impressive. Is it common for churches in NYC to have gift shops?

Times Square. You cannot avoid it, but it is pretty neat.
