becca takes manhattan

i will say that there were ups and downs. the biggest up? seeing this lady on broadway for this play was phenomenal. and hearing my baby sister sing at this place was cool beyond words (just like her).

but, not visiting this place was nearly heartbreaking. and finding out that this place doesn't even exist anymore was a disheartening revelation.

but finding a three-story version of this place made it all worthwhile.

did i take pictures of these things? no. but i did get a picture of marion trying to make a gang sign. and that, my friends, is priceless.

oh, and here are some other pictures if you are interested.

i loved the trees

particularly the ones in bloom (i only want to plant blooming trees at my house. they are just perfect).



and we had an overall great time


(i hope you liked exploring the different sites again with me)

Sounds like you gals had a fab time. Every girl needs a girls-only trip in their lifetime.

I love the gang sign and seriously your hair is beyond cute. what is that little headband you have in? I am pretty jealous of everything that you did and wanted to do. Like others I have never been to New York. If/when I go I want to go with you girls because you look very city chic.

The gang picture is my favorite. That cracked me up.

Also! Since I am way behind on blogs, this is the first time I've seen the hair cut. Freaking cute!!! It's tempting me to chop a couple inches off.

Glad you had fun!!!
