NYC

This weekend ryans parents came down to visit and go to a NY Yankees game...since the stadium is closing this year...so we paid 4X's the face value of a ticket and took 3 trains/subways to get up to the game- walked a million and 2 steps to our seats. we literally were the very last row of the stadium. the nice part about it was you could stretch your legs into the steps...but i held on the my seat the whole time- it was quite high and scary...and i only went to the bathroom once- thank god it was a quick game. i was not treking up and down those steps more than once. The game actually was alot of fun- there were no drunks that could spill beer on us either- it was literally impossible. the guy sitting in front of us had come all the way from alaska for the game. note to anyone going to yankee stadium- they dont let you bring in backpacks- we had to check our backpacks at a bar across from the stadium and put anything we wanted into a plastic bag...at the phillies stadium i could have brought rolling luggage if i wanted...
The yankees didnt win but it was an exciting game- lots of runs. i was so exhausted by the end of the day though- we did alot of walking around after the game too. i think i'm still sore.

we took the subway to the WTC and got the best view of ground zero- the subway runs/ran right into the bottom of the building. it made me realize that people were probably in there when the buildings collapsed though. scary.

here are the pics from the game

we also pretty much finished the nursery- a few more shelves and pictures to go up but 90% done...here some pics if you want to see them too.

Everything looks so good!

i guess everyone feels the philly's arent worth bombing; not as valuable as NYC.
