After a restless red-eye, we arrived Saturday morning bright and early. We got to my friend Lisa's apartment and I got ready while Kevin crashed. That happened a lot during the trip. We mostly just wandered around Times Square and Central Park the first day. I also did an H&M walk-through. I had to make a mental list of the things I wanted to buy later in the week when we were staying in the hotel.
Sunday we went to my old ward and it was nice to see some old friends. That evening we walked a ton more. It felt sooo good!
Monday I checked into the hotel and did some work. I managed to get in 30 mins of H&M and dropped way too much money for such little time. Then we went to the U.S. Open!! It was amazing. Some of you maybe asking yourselves, but wait, when did April become a fan of tennis? Well, I have to admit that it wasn't until half way through the Men's match in Ashe stadium. It was getting late and a lot of people were leaving so Kevin decided to try to get closer to get some pictures. I was tired, so I stayed in our seats in the upper bowl. After a while I saw a woman handing out tickets to the section below me. I got curious and walked down to see what they were. Lo and Behold they were court side tickets! I called Kevin and met up with him to move closer to the court. We started out on the second row, but eventually we made it to the first row! Donald Young and James Blake were playing. Two very good looking gentlemen. I'm sure Kevin got some amazing pictures. My pictures are pretty bad, but I thought you should get a sense of how close I actually was.
More pictures to come!
