On Sunday the 8th, Farley and I decided that we would head into Times Square and spend a day having fun. Actually, I had been harassing him to go to something touristy since I have never been here before. Usually I am the responsible one, but this time it was Farley who constantly had to remind me that we had to get to bed at a decent hour for school and buy groceries. Anyway, we hopped on the N train and got off at the Times Square stop.
It is hard to capture in a picture exactly how it feels. The buildings are all so tall around you. I hope you get the idea.
If I understand correctly, Times Square and the Theater District are basically the same neighborhoods. As you can see, Broadway is right there. I have learned that Broadway divides the island of Manhattan into east and west halves.
Here is one of the many theaters with a Broadway production. This is the Ambassador Theater, the home of "Chicago."
A few blocks from Times Square, you can find the Federal Reserve. To make your vacation to NYC even more fun, they post the national debt and it is updated constantly.
My favorite part of exploring the area around Time Square was St. Patrick's Cathedral. I was breathless. It is strange to see a Gothic Cathedral sandwiched between modern buildings.
Right next door to St. Patrick's is Saks 5th Ave!
Directly across the street from St. Patrick's is this statue of Atlas.
This is one of the entrances to Rockefeller Center. The following pictures are from Rockefeller Center. There are many sculptures there.
We also went to Bryant Park. It is much smaller than I thought it was based on t.v. Nonetheless, it is really pretty and it stands out with the trees and skyscrapers in the background.

One of the NYC public libraries is adjacent to Bryant park. There is a restaurant on the right side of this photo too.
The Chrysler Building. I am not sure where I took this photo from
Farley really wanted to go see "Inception", so we went to a movie while we were in Midtown. After the movie, we were able to get some nighttime pictures before heading home. Here is Time Square at night:
The Empire State Building: it was red, green and white for a Chinese festival
Finally, I took a picture of Radio City Music Hall before we left Manhattan for the 20 minute train ride home.
