In
December of 2008, my friend Kristin and I took a bus trip up to NYC to see NYC at
Christmastime. Her Mom, Aunt and Cousin went too and we stayed with
them for a bit but mostly headed out on our own. The bus
ride to NYC from Maryland is about 3 hours. We were lucky and didn't hit
much traffic (we left super early) and made it in almost exactly 3
hours.
We
started off by Radio City Music hall before heading towards Rockefeller
Center to see the skating rink and Christmas Tree. I had heard it was huge but my God,
that thing is ridiculous! Our next stop was time square where
we ran into the Naked Cowboy and checked out stores such as Toy's R Us and the M&M store. The last
place on our list was Central Park which we had a great time
exploring; it was probably my favorite spot in the city. We totally wanted to do a horse and carriage ride but the
price was just a little too high for us at the time! We ended our time
in NYC by heading back to Rockefeller Center and seeing the tree at night. We had a great time and it was a fantastic first visit to NYC for me!
