NYC-Times Square


I know there are only 4 pictures but I am still working on the rest of our trip.  
Friday afternoon we dropped off the rental car and caught a taxi into NYC.  Traffic was not too bad but it took us about an hour to get there.  We drove through Times Square and the kids caught their first glimpse of the lights and dazzle of Times Square.  
We checked in to our hotel and got settled then headed out for dinner at Ray's across from where they tape David Letterman's show.
On the way, we stopped into the 3 story tall M&M store.  It is filled with all kinds of M&M merchandise, row after row of different colored M&M's you can purchase by the pound and on the 3rd floor a small Shrek swamp area.
As we walked out of the M&M store there was a guy standing there handing out a flyer for the upcoming Shrek the Musical coming to Broadway.  Well, Sean got it in his head that we were going the next day which he was very disappointed to learn we weren't.  It actually starts on his birthday so we couldn't have gone anyway.
We went up to Ray's pizza and ate our yummy slices of pizza and Ryan was done!  He wanted no more of this sightseeing or anything.  So we decided to call it an early night since none of us slept much Thursday night.
We walked back through Times Square by the Hershey store (luckily we didn't go in....Sean is all about some chocolate circles aka Reese's peanut butter cups).
