The Kim That Never Sleeps

We have mocked up our itinerary. It is a bit insane the amount of things we intend to take in in a matter of a week. I hope that I don't pass out from exhaustion or over stimulation. New York has many people, and many lights. My little small town brain may not be able to take it all in. I'm already excited. I'm hoping adrenaline keeps me going when I am sleep deprived.

Here is our itinerary. I've written it in red, white, and blue to commemorate our american adventure.

My Life is a Series of Movie Quotes


Until James and I exit the plane on August 16th, my only real experience of New York is through film and television. The following shows and movies come to mind when I think of certain areas of The Big Apple:
Manhattan: Friends and Seinfeld 
Coney Island: The Warriors (CAN YOU DIG IT?)
The New York Library: Ghostbusters
Brooklyn: Saturday Night Fever
Central Park: Home Alone 2: Lost in New York
Any place fancy: Sex in the City
