Empire State Building (updated 8/4/05)

These are pictures from the birthday hangout trip to the Empire State Building. Although it was not the original plan, and the observation deck was clouded in fog it was a great experience. The fog provided for an erie time where we couldn't really tell how far up we we're. I recommend it to all, although i still want to go up on a clear night.

Edit - 8/4/05

We finally did make it up there on a clear night and here are the results.

Technically we should have seen lower Manhattan, instead we saw fog

The "professional" picture. I think mine came out better, plus it has more character.
