A "Wicked" good time!

We are back from our fabulous NYC anniversary weekend. Andy was a man with a plan and we had such a blast! Some of our highlights were: eating fantastic food, seeing the broadway show: Wicked, having a hotel room right in Times Square, visiting the Annie Leibovitz show at the Brooklyn Museum, and shedding a tear (or two) at the World Trade Center site.

I want to tell you about a bonus highlight of our trip...
We were having our anniversary dinner at the Sea Grill at Rockefeller Center with big windows overlooking the ice arena. Workers were busy setting up the ice for a performance later that night by singer Christina Aguilera. An amazing ice skater was warming up on the ice in preparation for the show. Turns out it was Olympic silver medalist Sasha Cohen. We had front row seats...how cool is that?

Lady Liberty?!?
A display of red bottles at Dean & Deluca caught my eye, although I was scolded by an employee for snapping this quick pic...
