Arriving in New York City

We arrived at JFK about 3 hours late and President and Sister Steve Bennion were there to greet us. We got our luggage situated in our apartment, and we just had to go walk the streets of New York City.  It was freezing....but that didn't stop us!
From our apartment door to the door of the Manhattan New York Temple is 103 steps.  We can't believe we live this close to the Temple.
The cornerstone of the Temple.  The Church has owned this property for a few years.  But it was remodeled and a new Temple was built within these walls in 2004.  The Temple is gorgeous and completely soundproof inside.
The Angel Moroni as seen from Columbus and Broadway at 65th Street.
We just had to walk down to Time Square.  It was about 20 degrees tonight but we were so excited we just had to got out and walk around.  By the time we got back to our apartment it was 12:30am- already we've broken a mission rule.  Sorry we will be careful from now on.
