a night around the city even without the mta!

even though the mta subway and bus operators are on strike, franny and i met up with her aunt and cousin in the city. luckily it wasn't too cold. well it was cold but bearable and it helped that it wasn't a windy night. we met up at the corner of 59th and 5th ave. from there we went ice skating in central park. it was fun since there werent that many people. i guess thats one benefit from the strike - people become too lazy too go out and see the sights! hehehe =)

afterwards we then walked all the way down to 34th street to check out the empire state and to eat dinner at minado. though the cold was bearable streetlevel, up on the 86th floor however it was downright frigid, and the winds were howling! i really the lookout since its out in the open, unlike in other buildings where you are indoors. i like the fact that you can feel the wind against your face. as much as i wanted to lookout you really couldnt given the conditions. on the way home, we passed by rockefeller center and of course took some pics.

below are the pics we took.
