Mr. Rugged and I have finally returned home yesterday, from our intensely fun trip (New York and Philadelphia)

On several occasions I've visit the city, yet never actually had time to explore all of its wonders. This time around we toured the entire big apple (every nook and cranny of Manhattan) and sampled some tasty food along the way. My thoughts on New York?... "well, for starters I have my own personal theory that New Yorkers are living swell" due to everyone's casualty of shopping and eating out on the regular. Seems like the place for me when I was in my early 20's... Here are a few snap shots from our trip.
