We got up early and jumped on a subway and headed down to the docks to get a ferry to Liberty Island. It was a gorgeous day. I just love all the foliage in NY. They have had a ton of rain and everything was so green!
When we got back from Liberty and Ellis Island there were great streat dancers. These guys were amazing. They were so strong!
Then that night we got tickets to SHREK the MUSICAL. It was absolutely amazing. Joey and I even thought it was better than Wicked. The music is so great. We were hoping to get tickets so I had the boys listen to the music before we went to NY. They knew it all so they enjoyed it even that much more. They have listened to it every day since we've been back.
Lindy's was right accross from the theatre so we had to get some good NY cheesecake. Then, since everyone was full of energy we did a midnight run to EMPIRE STATE BUILDING. Midnight is the perfect time to go because no one was there. We had no lines and went right up. The view at night was amazing. JUST MAGICAL! It was my favorite night in NYC.
The next day was our day to leave NYC. We couldn't leave without a trip to Bobby Flay's restaurant, Mesa Grill. The kids love him on food network so they were thrilled when I got reservations. And if you ask they how their food was there reply is usually, "to die for"!
