Laurie Simmons' Visit

Sunday we had the privilege of hosting our first visitor, Laurie Simmons, Wes's first cousin. We spent the day window shopping on 5th Avenue, exploring Central Park, venturing out to Brooklyn for a good pizza restaurant (which happened to be closed until the evening), viewing Statue of Liberty from Battery Park, stopping by Ground Zero, dinner in "The Village," and braving the crowds in Time Square. Yep, all in one day. Needless to say, the soles of our feet were very sore! Here are some pictures from our adventure.


This is on the bottom tip of Manhattan in Battery Park. Ellis Island is that blurry land mass in the distance.

This is in "The Village," a trendy part of Manhattan, with a lot of great places to eat. If you look closely, the Empire State Building is just beyond Wes' ear.

Of course this is Time Square.
