We spent a whole week in New York City and still didn't get through our to-do list. This is part 1 for NYC - hopefully it will only take two posts.
Time Square

What is the deal with all of the people in costume? |
Of course we had to peek in on GMA! |
M&M store is a total tourist trap but so much fun - this is just one of three banks of the candies. |
Central Park
We got up super early one morning to be in the audience for Good Morning America's Summer Concert Series - we had no idea what a crazy madhouse it would be. Rumor had it that some girls spent two nights in line to get good spots. I guess we didn't realize how popular Selena Gomez is - especially with the pre-teens and younger.
As soon as we made it into the small arena, Tom took a sharp left towards the only bleachers. From here, we had a great view and were in a safe spot when the crowd surged forward - I don't know how all those little girls could see, let alone breathe in the crowd.
It was fascinating watching all that goes into taping a "live" concert - Selena was to sing four songs during the broadcast of GMA - this meant that we heard these songs several times as things kept going wrong.
Jessica's poster - but we were too far back for it to be seen on TV. |
After the concert, we took a carriage ride around Central Park. |
9/11 Memorial
They've done an impressive job - so emotional. |
Museum of Natural History
This kid still loves dinosaurs - and this museum has an impressive collection! |
Some large meteor - I don't remember the details but if you ask Henry about it, he'll enthusiastically tell you all about it. |
There was a line to get a photo with this dude - thanks to "Night at the Museum" |
