I finally got my pictures downloaded from the trip to NYC which I wrote about a couple of weeks ago. (Scroll down in the blog if you missed it). Here are a couple of the funny highlights that could ONLY happen in New York City!
The Naked Cowboy, a modern day legend in NYC
This is the world-renowned (or maybe not!) “Naked Cowboy” who inhabits Times Square, playing his guitar in his cowboy hat, boots, and underwear! He always draws quite a crowd. Just not sure how he legally gets by with this…….
Walking down Fifth Avenue, who did I run into? Sponge Bob Squarepants! Of course, my little grandsons were delighted with the picture.
Millions of different colored M&M's to choose from!
Nancy and I had a ball at the M&M’s store — three floors of nothing but things made of M&M’s. There was one whole wall of these huge tubes filled with different colored M&M’s. At the bottom was a sort of trap door and plastic bags, so you could choose whatever you wanted and then pay by the pound. We found lots of fun things for the grandchildren. Unfortunately, there were no free samples! 😉
As I shared in the earlier blog posting, we happened onto a free show called “Broadway on Broadway” which included the cast and one number from every musical playing in the city. At the end, the confetti covered us, just like you see on New Year’s Eve. It was delightful, and I even scooped some up from the street to send to the grandchildren.
I can’t wait for my next trip to the “Big Apple!”
