2012 Summer vacation part 4 NYC!

Good ol' Nassau Ave. This is where we would get on the G train in the morning and get off totally exhausted at night
We took a Circle Line cruise around Manhattan...
and saw the Statue of Liberty...
here's the Brooklyn bridge again, I love this bridge. See the little white building on the right? Steve took us for ice cream there one day

the brown building with all the windows is Martha Stewart's headquarters
The Chrysler building where Heidi works
and another picture of Bryant Park at lunchtime
I had a couple of specific places I wanted to go while in NY. Can you guess where?
here's another clue...
Okay this wall of buttons has to give it away! 
I had to go to Mood Fabrics! Where Tim Gunn brings the designers on Project Runway!

This place was as glorious as I had imagined it would be. A sweet man named Bob helped me with my fabric. He told me one of the fabrics I chose was last years Marc Jacobs :) I'm looking forward to making something fun with it!
"Thank You Mood!"
(I bought a t-shirt with that saying on it :)
We also visited the Museum of Modern Art...
It's where Van Gogh's Starry Night is displayed and guarded by security

loved this...
and this graphic piece. It wrap around an entire room, way cool
my first hotdog
Aaron had a gyro at this stand. I think this was his favorite NY food.
Radio City
getting ready for the Olympics...
Rockefeller Center

I can't help but think of the "30 Rock" theme song when I look at this picture :)
and a picture of the awesome Peter Pan donut shop :)

more pics of Brooklyn. I bought some really good fruit here

I told Steve I wanted a really good NY bagel. He brought us here to Ess-a-Bagel. Awesome bagel! I'm telling you, Steve knows where all the good stuff is here :)

to be continued...

I am so jealous that you got to go to Mood! That is so cool! I think I need to trip to NYC again sometime soon :)
