Travel: New York City sightseeing

Thursday, June 5, 2014

We spent a whirlwind weekend in New York City for my sister-in-laws bachelorette. It was two days of sight-seeing, rooftop sangria's, and EATING!
We arrived to our hotel about 1:00PM, and the first thing we did was eat lunch at the Shake Shack! The line was long and the restaurant was packed, but it was well worth it.

Times Square
The crowds were overwhelming, the billboards so colourful, and the continuous stream of yellow cabs made for an exciting visit to Times Square. Our hotel was located within steps of the square, so we were within walking distance of anything we needed (specifically Starbucks).



 

Rockefeller Square
I love being a tourist in a city like New York, there is so much to see! I would love to come back during Christmas time and see the square all lit up and of course see the giant Christmas tree.
 

Walking to Grand Central Station
We took a walk down 5th Ave. to get to Grand Central Terminal, and it was just as you would see in the movies. It's just as grand from the outside as it is the inside. The architecture and surrounding buildings are stunning.
 
 
 

We had the most delicious dinner at STK. If you are in the Midtown area, it's the perfect place to lounge and have a drink with friends.

Instead of overwhelming you with photos, I'll write about the rest of our trip tomorrow.
Stay tuned!
