There was much excitement arriving in New York knowing we were meeting up with Andy and Sarah. Andy was at Newark Airport when we arrived and surprised us by creeping up behind us at baggage claim. It was so good to see him after 10 months. Sarah arrived soon after and we headed out to celebrate our first night together.
Three nights and two days later and I feel as though we are just getting to know our way around. We have walked miles of the easily navigable grid of Manhatten Island until our feet were on fire, we have ridden the open top double decker buses and gaped skywards at the ever changing skyline, we have crossed the Hudson River on the Staten Island ferry just so we could turn around and come back again, and we have survived the white knuckle experience of the yellow cabs. And each time we tick another “must see” off our list another one takes it's place. So much to see and do... we will have to come back.

The photos below are a small selection of the many we have taken. Around every corner, another landmark.
Andy and Sarah got I heart NY tshirts! That is awesome!
