While many people might choose to visit the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building, I headed straight for FAO Schwartz. I needed to play with some toys and listen to kids laughing. I had a ball!
Then I had a picnic lunch in Central Park overlooking the city. I went to a candy shop, and climbed the Trump Tower. I found my old roommate from Texas, Cheryl! We only had 20 minutes to catch up, but it was so great to see her and snag a few hugs.
I ended the day in Times Square at sunset. There were so many people! I climbed a staircase and got to be on one of the jumbo trons.
As I sprinted toward my train, I couldn't help take a few pictures of people on the street. It made me smile to see people being their crazy, bold selves. I only had 7 hours, short an sweet and just enough for me.

Oh there I am. . . Doing the 'I Love You' sign on the far left of the Jumbo Tron

Wow. I have always thought lunch in New York would be intriguing. You proved it to be true! I am so glad you took the opportunity!
