The Day After Tomorrow


Sunday, our NYC snow bonus day, was awesome. At some point during the night, the snow stopped and the city cleaned off the streets. Officially, Central Park received 26.8" of snow, just 0.1" short of the all-time record. Most of the sidewalks were clear and we were able to make our way unhindered to Rockefeller Center for brunch. The skating rink was cleared and there were a dozen kids with rosy pink cheeks skating around.


The Atlas sculpture is 40 feet tall. This was the nicest art we saw all day; from here we spent a few hours in the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). Halfway thru JP and I looked at each other and said "The Emperor has no clothes."


Later that night, we went up to the Top of the Rock for a gorgeous view of the snow capped city under a full moon.


Monday morning, we had a couple of hours before we had to leave, so we ambled over to get the must-have photo of the snowbound NYC puclic library from the weather apocalypse movie "The Day After Tomorrow"
