We ate at this really good restaurant for lunch that I forgot the name of (It was that good). The salads
and sandwiches were both delicous.
I window shopped at Bergdorf Goodman
I got to see where Christy works in Columbus Circle
The very odd statue at The Shops at Columbus Circle
Some marathon posters in the mall
We went to this really cool Thai restaurant called Room Service in Hell's Kitchen.
The decor was beautiful
and the food was fantastic
I was entertained by all the mirrors on the ceiling
Afterwards we went to a Knicks game!!
They played the Wizards and won.
Yay for a Sports game I actually understand.
After the Knicks game we met up with Christys mom, aunts, and grandma and went to the top of the Empire State Building.
I've only been to the top during the day and I must say it was much cooler at night.
It was soooo cold and windy at the top we could only look for a few minutes before we went back inside.
One day we met Al's dad at Ground Zero and went to the museum and took the tour. The tours are done by people that were affected by 911. Our tour guides brother was one of the firefighters that died in 911.
This is the building next to Ground Zero that is still standing perfectly and wasn't affected at all.
The tour was so touching. I highly reccommend it.
This is our tour guide.
If you look in the distance you can see the store Century 21. He said the rubble and ashes were as high as that store after the towers fell.
Later that day we went to Soho where I could spend a week and saw the new Dash store. Unlike the one in Calabasas there was actually people there. 
Al's dad with Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe
The best lululemon store yet
Al's dad had his laundry done while he was in NY. He was a little worried it might have gotten lost since that heaping pile of laundry sitting outside is where you drop off your clothes. 
He got permission to pick up his clothes 2 hours early and was scolded for doing so. It was just like the Soup Nazi Seinfeld episode.
Having a yummy vanilla vanilla cupcake at Magnolia Bakery.
and the amazing Banana pudding.
Originally Jace and Al were supposed see American Idiot with us, but got out of going. Christys mom and Aunt joined us instead which was so much fun.
American Idiot was definately one of the more interesting Broadway plays I've seen. The Green Day music was awesome and that's about it.
One last stop after American Idiot was the Shake Shack which I think is totally over rated. Their frozen crinkle fries and hamburgers were just eh.
On our way home we got to see Al Pacino 
Sunday was the marathon
I went to Riverside Park with Christy's family while she was at work and while Al was resting his feet. 
Christy and Jace live by Gray's Papaya which is a famous hot dog restaurant.
We went there almost every night.
Our last day in NY we had breakfast at Sarabeth's with Al's dad.
We saw the Natural History Museum in one hour.
Lots of dinosaurs and history
Whitney Memorial Hall!!
The coolest planetarium ever
and the tallest dinosaur ever
and me not wanting to leave NY. Hopefully we will be back soon with little Al.

I was lucky enough to have Christy be my tour guide and take me to a few points throughout the race to see Al and his dad. Our first stop was in Brooklyn at mile 3. Here is one of the live bands.
