One of the many advantages to living on the East Coast is that we are 3 hours ahead of all our loved ones on the West Coast. That being said, we love making the most of our time and seeing all that New York has to offer. If you ever find yourself needing a reminder as to why some of us love our mornings so much, the amazing pictures listed below should help you with that.
