New York was a blast. It was tiring yet lots of fun. The 17 students were great at the company visits but had issues with being on time and listening to me and Sarah. I seriously felt like I yelled non stop for 4 days and repeated the same thing over and over again. Regardless of some of the frustrations it was a really successful trip and the students seemed really appreciative. Sarah deserves all the credit for putting it all together.
We had our share of weather during the week but that did not stop us from seeing the sights. We crammed a lot in and by the time we left EARLY Sunday morning I think we felt that we had a full New York experience. We saw: the top of the Empire State Building, Most of the Financial District (and the inside of a lot of companies), The Statue of Liberty, the Federal Reserve Bank, The United Nations, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, 5th Avenue Shopping Area, Times Square, Little Italy, ate at the Rainbow Room, saw a Broadway show (Legally Blonde is AWESOME), and I think ate all the things you are supposed to eat in NYC - pizza, hot dogs, cheesecake (we tried three different kinds), etc. Here are some pictures:

It was freezing cold this day and super windy!
Our yummy dinner and awesome view at the Rainbow Room

We saw this sign in Times Square and found it quite funny
