Ten Years In New York

August 5th Kristin and I will have been married ten years.  What?  Where did ten years go?  Anyway, next week we’re taking a roundabout trip to New York to celebrate.  Now, when I say roundabout, that means we are driving but we’re working our way there through North Carolina and Washington DC.  Kristin has never been to any of these places and we’ve been working on this trip for a while.  My parents have been awesome enough to come out and stay with the boys so we’ll have a little time to just take it in.  Then for our actual anniversary day, we’ll be in New York.  We’re still not sure of the details of what we are going to do there, but does it really matter?

So this next week we are tourists.  I absolutely can’t wait to be with just Kristin for a couple days.  For eight of these ten years we’ve had kids and not taken more than a couple hours to get away on a date.  After eight years, I think we’ve earned it.

So what’s the absolute ‘must do’ stuff on the way to or in New York.  I’ve been there a few times and we’ll do some of the tourist-y stuff, but anyone have any recommendations?
