Rockefeller Centre & the Empire State Building

Today we found Rockefeller Centre. No Christmas trees but an ice skating ring. So good. We stood there for ages just watching all the people go by.
Its alot smaler than i though but it was really cool to be there.
I have more photos but they wouldnt load.

Then we went up the Empire State Building to the 86th floor to the Observation deck.

Awesome. We could see our hotel and the statue of liberty from afar (see the photo below.) We saw the Hudson river, Central Park, Brooklyn Bridge, infact we saw everything up there.

There you go the statue of liberty is on the little island in the middle of water. We will be going on the Ferry past it in the next couple of days.

And of course we went into the NBA shop. Ben loved it. Lots of Michael Jordan Memorabilia.

After spending all day wandering up and down the streets we are absolutly stuffed. We are about to head out for dinner and see Time Square in the Dark.

Oh we also saw a scene being filmed for a motion picture. We took a photo or two. Was hoping it would be Sarah Jessica Parker about to walk out of the Oyster shop but it was just a scene of people walking. No one famous. Booooooo.
