New York City !!!

We made it !!!
We are in New York City, finally!!!

We worked last saturday, and some extended hours this last week, so we could have this friday (today) off. We're staying at a Marriott (they have a copy of the Book of Mormon in every room!!) in New Jersey.
We went to Times Square today, and also to Little Italy, where we had delicious Italian sandwiches... amazing.
The highlight of the day, though is the following: just when we first arrived today at noon, we decided to go have lunch; we wanted something unique that could not be found anywhere else, something totally local and purely New Yorker... MacDonalds !!!!! Ahem, well, we went and had our meals (which, by the way, cost a few dollars more than we were expecting). As everything in this city seems to be built in inside tall buildings, we went up two floors to the upper level to eat. As is natural, once we were done, we came back down to exit the establishment... and there he rolled... Tony fell down the stairs !!! My right foot popped like you have no idea.
Now, I'm limping as I walk, and it hurts like CRAP !!! My right ankle is swollen, but hasn't turned purple, and I hope it won't. We'll see how it turns out tomorrow morning when I wake up...

But that's not going to impede my having a blast in one of the most important cities in the world, especially after having worked so many hours, lifted so many boxes, and checked so many records...


We're planning to visit the Manhattan Temple tomorrow morning, at 7:30 am, and then go around and visit cool stuff...

I'll keep you all posted on what happens. I promise I will post pictures tomorrow night, so you all can have an idea of how much fun Dan and I are having here, the Coolest city in the world.

BTW, we saw the "Naked Cowboy" today in Times Square... GROSS !!
