Happy Birthday Brad!!

Enjoying your birthday Birthday Cake cake pop are you!? Don't say I never get you anything! :D

Book of Mormon... Or Book of Awesome!?!?

Yay for Book of Mormon! This was probably the single most enjoyable musical that I have ever been to! The story was great! It was hilarious, although I'm sure for some people it would be slightly offensive... I loved it though!!! 

We had box seats which were worth the price although you couldn't see what was happening on the far left of the stage. 

Also great... The wine served in sippy cups! These things are genius! 

The only bad (horrifying) part about the night was the poor quality of the audiences attire... I mean c'mon!! I saw someone in runners and capris!! But other than that I highly highly recommend Book of Mormon - unless you are easily offended!

Top of the Rock

So we were going to go to MoMA in the afternoon after we had a sweet sweet nap.... But it was literally lined up around 2 whole blocks to get in because its free from 4-8 on Fridays... Who knew!?! It was also pouring rain. So we decided to go to Top of the Rock! 

Which is the viewing area at the top of 30 Rock! It was great because there was no one there... Possibly because visibility was a 3... Oh well!! We got out of the rain and really enjoyed it! Check out these awesome pics!!

Central Park - Day 1

As soon as Brad and I got in we headed to Central Park! It was great! We just cracked the surface of the park but we are headed back tomorrow!

 

We wandered around a bit and then escaped the rain by playing chess in the park! Tons of fun! Although Brad is the superior chess player. :(

I lost twice despite my best efforts!

Hopefully the weather starts to cooperate for brads birthday tomorrow! Tonight we are off to Book of Mormon!! Should be fabulous!!

We're here!

After a fairly great flight we have arrived! Although in future... When I'm wealthy... The first class seats turn into BEDS so that might be something to experience for a red eye... But the Cathay flight was great! We got dinner and free wine! Whhaaaat!

After a harrowing cab ride into the city from JFK we arrived at our hotel! We randomly asked if the penthouse was available (haha) and there WAS a penthouse suite that we got and didn't have to pay more for!! Check out the views and the patio!!

We also got free champagne!! It doesn't matter that it was 11am... we are on vacation!!

Welcome to NYC Taryn and Brad!!

We're Back!

We are back in the blogging world and headed to New York!! We got to the airport WAY too early and are now just hanging around. Who knew that everything closes at 9! Where am I supposed to get a glass of wine!? You would think at this wine bar... But no. It is closed :(

Also... the red eye Cathay Pacific flight we are taking is an international flight so we didn't have to clear USA customs before we got into the terminal - huge time saver!! It only to 30 minutes to get from our front door to the our departure gate!! Although I've never been through US customs at a US airport so it will be an experience I'm sure!

 I have my ZzzQuils and I'm ready for the red eye!! We all know Brad can sleep anywhere so it shouldn't be an issue for him! New York here we come!
