Oh how I wish I could be concise and succinct and all those brief and non-wordy things that I am not. Also, while I'm wishing, I wish I would not drag entries out so. But obviously I will never change, so here goes the Next Installment of the Wicked Weekend in New York. This was Saturday April 26. Now that I type the date, I find myself astonished that it's only been a little over a month. It seems like forEVER ago!
We had a quick breakfast in the Starbucks across the street from the hotel (REALLY good oatmeal - for some reason I've managed to miss experiencing Starbucks oatmeal until this trip. And I love oatmeal) and then started just walking north on Broadway. We had tickets for the 2:00 showing of Wicked so had time to sightsee.
I loved that there's a Nikola Tesla Corner-
We walked across Bryant Park , and around to the NY Public Library.
The Extremely Iconic NY Public Library is gorgeous - I wish we'd had more time to spend there. Like, all day. We did wander around quite a bit inside, though.
I also wish I could have gotten better pictures of the amazing ceilings - it was like being in a cathedral.
I loooooove all the gorgeous old buildings. Old and new buildings. All mixed up together.
The Rockefeller Center! It was so tall I couldn't get it and the ice rink in one shot.
Not sure what the Easter Bunny was doing there, as it was well past Easter, but he was amusing-
AND of course now I'm out of time, and haven't even gotten to Wicked yet! Oh, well, I'll just stretch this out for ages like I did the England trip. Hopefully it won't take six months to finish this three-day adventure, though.

I LOVE these!!! I see these things all the time (and am actually in one of the buildings you photographed as I type this) and you make them look so epic. AMAZING!

How cool is that???!!! Lucky you! I wish we'd had more time --- we were only there three days- one full and two partial. It was a whirlwind.

I heard they trashed the big plan for remodeling the public library after you left. I am thinking you need to visit more often, discreetly, on your own. :) Love the big reflection shot.
