NYC (Day 3)

This morning, we would get up very, very early. In fact it was so early we could not get breakfast at the hotel and instead settled on some donuts at the Dunkin Donuts on the corner.

We took LYFT from hotel to Rockefeller Center for the live taping of the TODAY show. It was of course, cold and rainy so it wasn't that pleasant to stand outside for several hours. We did get a chance to get on tv a few times.

 We shook hands with Al Roker and had our photo taken with Hoda Kotb. We donated toys to the Toy Drive (Victoria Secret super models were collecting them that date) I commented she wished she had my ear muffs because she was so cold :-)

 After the TODAY show taping, we took LYFT downtown to see the World Trade Center Memorial.

We grabbed a bite to eat at a local diner and then we were off to the ferry to see the Statue of Liberty.

 From there the ferry went to Ellis Island


After a long day of being out in the cold, we opted for a nice dinner out at the West Side Steakhouse.  We each enjoyed a drink and a steak dinner.  http://www.westsidesteakhousenyc.com/

Tomorrow we go home. Thanks for a great weekend girls!
