NY Day 5




Yesterday morning we slept in a little bit, then got ready and packed. Our plane didn't leave until 5, so we basically had another day. We needed to get Eliza a souvenir, so we set out to find that. She requested a ring or a necklace. First we went to Bryant Park. It is a pretty, small-ish park. There was a holiday faire going on, so we walked around there a little bit and we saw the ice skaters on the pond. From there we went to Grand Central Terminal. They have a fun light show in the center of it. Then we went back to 34th Street to Macy's. We only did a couple of floors. We just wanted to see it since it's so huge--11 floors. We went back by Bryant Park to Crumbs--a cupcake shop. We got a couple of cupcakes--I had the Reese's one and Brian had the Oreo. We got a few to bring home, too.

We found another couple who leave the same time, so we rode to the airport together and split the taxi fare. We had a very enjoyable plane ride home. Brian slept a lot of the way and I watched TV. It's about time we got on a plane with that ammenity! I watched Cash Cab, Top Chef and some things on Food Network. It was great and totally passed the time. We got home around 9:30. It felt great to be home!
