Wow What a full day!

Today was an incredibly awesome but full day! We woke up and ate a quick breakfast and packed sack lunches. We headed out and made our wonderful subway adventure with our new group. They were great at it! We met The Journey church and passed out granola bars on the street in Union Square. People were really sweet and I handed out about 5 boxes of bars! I had a great time!! Then we headed over to Verdi Park to eat lunch. We ate lunch then went to this frozen yogurt place called Pinkberry. It was so so so incredible! I put oreos and strawberries on top! Pinkberry is this really trendy and really cute yogurt places so we of course had to go. Anything dessert in NY we have to try! Then we passed out more granola bars. My group was finished rather early so they showed us to this great bakery where we could get awesome cookies. It was a bakery that was on Food Network and in a cookie contest against Bobby Flay (sp?) they won! I got a chocolate cookie with peanut butter on the inside (of course). I saved it for later since I had already had dessert. We headed over to Bryant park which is near Times Square. This was a bit more interesting then the other places. People were way more rude and would go from person to person just getting bars.....and they would ask for like four at a time...I had a taxi driver pull over on the side of the road with a passenger in the car and stopped the meter to get five bars!! At the other places we went people were nothing like that they were so super nice and grateful! Well, the group wanted to check out Central Park so we walked over there and got them dinner from a famous hot dog stand in the area. We had dinner in the park and then had worship! It was so fun and people would stop and watch us! I spoke tonight and it went well :) Then we headed back to the church. When we got back to the church we found out we had to move our car for the hundredth time for a filming of a movie!! The extras our staying in the church with us during the day :) It is a Bruce Willis (sp?) movie! We moved our car then went to Blockbuster to rent a movie. We rented Confessions of a Shopaholic because Beth our worship leader is in it!! YAY! We are watching that now and I am eating my wonderful cookie! Bed as soon as it is over. We have another full day tomorrow!!!
