We started our Saturday by getting on the subway to downtown. We went to Century 21 (a major designer discount store)- it has been referred to as a Winners on steroids. We got some sweet deals, and managed to get out of there before the store was completly overrun by crazy shoppers everywhere.
We saw Ground Zero, where the World Trade Centers were. It's hard to imagine and take it all in. That there were these massive buildings that are now missing. I can't imagine all the people locals and tourists going about their day and boom, everything changed.
I felt surrounded all day, by all the buildings just hovering over us. They are seriously never ending in this end of the city. All the buildings are so amazing.
I don't know if you can tell from this, but it was windy and freezing when we got near the water and away from the buildings.
If you can look way out in the water you can see the tiny lady of liberty raising her torch. I think we'll get a closer look another day.
A statue that was in the WTC and stayed intact after the terrorist attacks. It is now in Battery Park with an eternal flame as a symbol of hope.
Ryan and the raging bull
The New York Stock Exchange.
Ryan at Wall and Broad St. looking so stylish.
I sure made Ryan pose a lot today.
Trinity Church
Again feeling claustrophobic with all the buildings.
I had to take a picture of this, can you see angel Moroni on top?

Looks like so much fun and such an adventure! Good job with all the pictures!
what a fun adventure...do you seriously have to walk everywhere? You are going to be even skinnier if you walk 30 blocks on a regular basis. seriously I am a little jealous that there are so many fun things to go see and do....today I saw the old man river...top that!
fun fun!!!! How was century 21???? Did you get any sweet deals? So many cool things you are seeing!!!
and i had to add that Ryan is quite the trooper to have so many photos of him taken! :)
Wow, I'm crazy jealous. I think you made Ryan pose a lot because you're not used to having him with you...haha. Oh man, I'm not looking forward to the articling year. I can't believe you're actually living there for a little while. What an amazing experience.
I still can't believe that you are in New York! What an amazing city! It's so fun to look at all your pictures...keep them coming!
