A cooler day in NYC

The temperature dropped and it's fall weather here.  Good thing we brought warm clothes.  The high today is 57F.  The Hop on Hop off bus was very cool riding around.  We did the Uptown Tour.  Went around Central Park and uptown.  Lots of museums and gorgeous buildings.  Then a nice walk around Rockerfeller Center.  There are a lot of Halloween decorations. 


I have no idea why I took this picture!

This is where the NYC Marathon ends on November 6th.  Central Park & 66th St.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Guggenheim Museum

American Museum of Natural History

The architecture is amazing!

The trees in Central Park are starting to change colours!

Lots of bikes and horses and carriages to rent.  We opted for the bus!


Rockerfeller Center.  No ice yet, but it's almost ready.  They are getting ready for the Christmas tree.

I checked the calendar and the Rockettes Christmas Spectacular starts November 18.

We had dinner at a Celtic Pub!  We went in for Shepherds Pie.   It was Oktoberfest and the Germany food was awesome!

After dinner we went to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum.  Over 200 wax figures throughout the exhibit.  Movie Stars, Politicians, Monarchy, singers, sports figures and many more.  Then a 4D movie that featured Marvel characters.  Well worth the visit!  I have a lot of pictures and posted some on Facebook,

On the way back to our hotel, we walked through Times Square again!  Friday night and Halloween made quite the sights.  It was CRAZY!  

It's CRUISE DAY!!!!
