What a FANTASTIC trip we had to New York City! We stayed in the Crowne Plaza, above the Hersey's Store in Times Square. We had a great view from our corner room looking down the street to where the New Year's ball drops. We took in some outstanding Broadway shows: The Lion King, Stomp and Matilda. We also got to a Rangers vs Canucks game at Madison Square Garden. We saw sights like the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, and Rockefeller Center. We were thrilled to see some of the most famous stores in the world like Macy's as well as all the high end shopping on 5th Avenue and 34th Street. Cale loved the three story Toys R Us as well as the M&Ms Store and FAO Schwartz. Even the little things like the cab, the ferry rides, the subway and street vendors were exciting to experience. It was VERY cold though. The record cold even froze over the harbor. It made standing outside a challenge, but it was worth it for Ellen's Stardust Diner and the Broadway shows. We also loved the Museum of Modern Art and all the little pubs and cafes. If only we could have stayed.... We'll get back someday!!
