Trip to see The Little Mermaid in NYC

Some pictures of our trip to the big city to see the Little Mermaid on Broadway!

This is the ferris wheel INSIDE Toys R Us.  Girls enjoyed a ride in the yellow car.

Enjoying a break in M&M World!  What a great store!!!  Could have spent a couple hours here checking out the M&M's!  I bought some Red Sox colored M&M's for me and Mets colored M&M's for my daughter who wasn't able to come with us.  Plus a few more things!  We went to the Hershey Store also - another great place to visit!  Of course we found some things to buy there also!  No yarn but lots of goodies!
Two little princesses on the train to NYC.  Train was standing room only and a very nice gentleman gave these little ones his seat to share!  Very lucky little girls.  Grandma and their mommies had to stand all the way!  Everyone seemed to pick the same day we did to go to NYC.  Luckily on the way home train was less crowded and we got to sit!
Two of my girls and two of my granddaughters strolling the streets enjoying the view. The little one with the purple backpack kept looking up at the buildings and was amazed at all the skyscrapers!   Nothing over 6 stories in our hometown and this was both little ones first trip to the big city!  We all had a great time and can't wait to go again! 
 We had lunch at the ESPN Zone and if you haven't been to one of their restaurants  - it is very interesting!  There are tv's in the bathroom stalls in the ladies room and over the urinals in the mens room - you never have to miss a minute of the ballgame!

After the show the girls checking out the Little Mermaid's picture on the side of the theater.  The show was awesome and the girls loved it - so did their mommies and grandma!  Amazing how they made you think you were underwater! 
 Music was fantastic!  Will have to get the soundtrack for my IPOD.
What a great day - will have to do this again soon.  The girls want to go see The Lion King!   Will have to save my pennies (lots of them) so we can go again soon!
The weather was perfect and we had an awesome day! I thought the girls would sleep all the way home but they were so excited they were awake all the way home on the train!

Looks like a wonderful time! When we went to Toys R Us the line was so long for the ferris wheel that we didn't wait. But - wow! What a store!
