NYC - Through My Lens

New York City...Through My Lens

Radio City Music Hall
This is were they tape the show 
"America's Got Talent"
We picked up tickets to a live taping
 but in the end we opted for a 
NY Yankees Baseball game instead.

Dylan's Candy Bar
Here Michael is about to devour
a Giant Gummy Bear.


NY Mets @ CitiField
We went to a NY Mets Baseball game
vs the Colorado Rockies.
It was a great game with the Mets
winning their first shutout of the season.


This is a piece of the old Shea Stadium
moved into the new stadium.


Empire State Building
Each night the Empire State Building 
is lit up with different colours.
We saw Purple, Green, White,
and Green/Orange/White.
For National Holidays it is Red/White/Blue.


The American Museum of Natural History
This is the Museum that is depicted in the movie 
"A Night at the Museum" a favourite of our family.
While walking to the Museum the skies opened up
and it started to down pour where the rain was 
bouncing a foot off the ground. 
Michael hailed us a Cab in seconds
 by jumping in the streets with a raised hand,
 just like a resident New Yorker.





Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.
 We ate at a different Restaurant every night
 only repeating on the last night of our stay with the
 Restaurant we had on the first night "Schnipper's". 
 I love crab legs but the downside
 is it takes me so long to eat them.
 The boys endured a long dinner
 at Bubba Gump just for me.


Times Square
 This place is packed with people every night
and lots of people dressed up in costumes 
trying to make money by having their pictures taken.
Luckily we didn't have to pay these two Shoppers.


M&M's Store
 Michael's favourite thing at the M&M Store
 is the bulk candy section. Here he is back
 in the hotel room with his $20 bag of M&M's.
