An Eventful Friday

Lower Manhattan
Jet knocked a couple of items off his agenda in the morning as he made his pilgrimage to Ground Zero and then checked out the New Museum of Contemporary Art at noon.



Midtown to Union Sq.
We got up early and headed towards Midtown Manhattan. Matt did some shopping at the NBA store on 5th Avenue while the rest of the family checked out designer clothing. I had to run some errands, so I went off to my apartment as they looked around and met up with them again 30 minutes later. Our next stop was the 23rd St./6th Ave. area. We covered some stores on Matt's list such as Tekserve & Best Buy. We took a lunch break at New York Burger Co. and then went shopping for clothes between that area and Union Sq. Everyone ended up buying something at the end of the day, so... success!

Post-rehearsal Dinner
After a short break at my parents' house, we went to meet up with the rest of the family for the first wedding event... the post-rehearsal dinner at Northern Manor. We met up with pretty much everyone else from my Dad's side of the family and were introduced to the bride's side. All of the cousins got a chance to catch up with each other since we had our own table to ourselves. I haven't seen Jennifer & Jeremy since the last wedding... Cindy and Wil in 2002. Matt & Margaret were at Christine's last December. I also haven't seen Greg in over a year... and he's a local!
