Christmas trip Day 7

Day 7

Merry Christmas! The kids were so warn out they did not wake up until 9:00. They saw there presents from mom and dad and were excited to be in New York City for Christmas. We went and ate and took off for the Empire State Building. It was only about a 10 Minute wait. Which is not normal, but we won't complain. We got up to the top and it was Windy. It was fun to see the area. We then went on the Subway and rode it down to the pier to ride the ferry across the river to see the Statue of Liberty, Staten Island and the many boats that are in the harbor. On the way back, we found out the Santa was our Captian. That was fun for the kids. We then walked up to Ground Zero, rode the Subway again up to Times Square and then walked up to the Rockefeller Center. About a block away from Rockefeller Center it started to rain. We then got to walk back to our hotel room in the rain about 15 blocks. On the way home, Roy picked up some NYC Cheesecake and eggnog. That is a perfect ending to a fun day.

We can say we have walked our kids to the bone, but it has been fun.
