NYC Day 3

We were exhausted from all the walking we did the day before, but after a good nights sleep (and a few peanut M&M's) we were ready to hit the streets again! Our original plan was to go see the Statue of Liberty this day, but we decided to try and get tickets to a matinee show of "How to Succeed in Business without even Trying" starring Harry Potter himself... Daniel Radcliff. After each of us waiting in different lines we were lucky enough to get tickets! Woo Hoo! So now a little rescheduling was needed so we could make it to the 2:00 show. We decided to go to the Empire State Building. On the walk over we passed by the NYC Library. The arcitecture was so amazing!    


We finally made it to the Empire State Building... It's very difficult to get a photo of the outside when you are standing beneath it
 But the view from the top was AMAZING!!!

After hanging out for a bit on the roof we headed back North and decided to check out the largest MACY's store ever!
 And boy was it ever!  I think there was 7 floors.  We both just loved these old wooden escalators even though they sounded like they were going to fall apart.   
From there we cruised over to Grand Central Station
 This building was again amazing with all it's beautiful arcitecture. 

Time was running short so we headed back to the hotel to freshen up and get to the matinee.
Our seats were pretty far back, but it was still an amazing experience.  We both loved it!
We waited outside the exit hoping Daniel Radcliff would come out to sign autographs, but alas...
We did get these guys though...


It had already been a full day, but it wasn't over yet! 
We found a "quaint" place for dinner and while there it started raining. 
We shared a tiny umbrella and raced back to the hotel to relax and freshen up before the night show of "Anything Goes"
 It, of course, didn't disappoint!  Wonderful Classic Broadway show!
We waited and waited for Sutton Foster to come sign autographs but nope...
But we did get this guy....

Exhausted, wet and completely in awe of the day's experiences we retired for the night.
Tomorrows adventure.....Statue of Liberty!
