New York Day 8

 Edited go add:

Forgot to mention that first up we went to the Apple Store which is open 24/7 and had a look around. The prices seem to be pretty standard around the world.

Then we went to FAO Schwarz the toy store.  As they opened and you walked in, the staff lined the aisle and clapped.  We felt like we were back on the Stampin' Up trip.  Lots to see in the store including life size Lego models, a huge piano that you walk on to play and lots more.

Great day today, first up a tour of Radio City Music Hall, it is amazing. The stage is in 4 parts and they can go up or down independently of each other.  Met one of the Rockettes who has been there for 12 years.  The theatre is the largest indoor theatre and can seat over 6,000.  

 Then we went to the "top of the Rock" (Rockefeller) to the observatory decks.  Great views and better than Empire State Building in my opinion.  There are three different levels of observation decks and the lift takes you up 67 floors in 43 seconds!  The ceiling of the lift is clear and you can see the structure of the lift well and they project images on to it.  Lots of queues but they move along fairly quickly.

Annamaree decided she would go back to the hotel to rest her feet and we arranged to meet at 7:30pm at the Rockefeller Centre as we were going to see the views again at night time.  I decided to walk to Macy's for another look.  Bit further than I thought but lots to look at on the way.  I then caught the subway back to the Rockefeller Centre and wandered around the shops and then had dinner in one of the restaurants that are in the concourse around the fountain.  

When Annamaree returned we went back up to the "top of the Rock" but it was so crowded, I waited a while for the sun to go down and see the lights come on and then we left before it got too busy.  We then walked the 7 blocks back to the motel.

We are off to Niagara Falls tomorrow and the bus is picking us up at 5am to take us to the airport.  It is 10pm here so I had better get some shut eye before the alarm goes off!

Cheers
