new york, new york--the end!

Alright, last post on New York, I promise! 

On our last day, we were able to go to the Manhattan New York LDS Temple. I mentioned in one of my earlier posts that the city was always so busy. It never quieted down, it was just constantly going. It was fun, but it was so peaceful to step inside the temple (which is just on a busy New York street) and feel the calm, quiet peace which temples offer. I didn't get a picture of the outside of the temple, so this is one from the church's website.

It was such a different experience than the temples back in Utah, yet it was exactly the same. It is hard to explain, so I'll leave it at that. It was such a great way to end our trip. In order to make it to the airport in time, we didn't have time to do a session, so we did sealings instead. As always, it was wonderful! Temples truly are a "refuge from the storm."


So thankful we could have this trip! Until next time, New York, peace out.
