Grand Central Station & More

This is one of the places I had been waiting to go too…mostly because of all the movies I have seen with shots inside the main terminal… main is it gorgeous! So many intricate details all over the place.. the lights, the flooring and unique seating were spectacular! We had lunch at a little Pita place in the ‘dining concourse’ with over 20 different places to choose from! So yummy.

From there we headed outside into the heat and happened upon the All-Star Baseball Parade-completely on accident. It was pretty cool. Even though I only know of Joe Mauer from the Twins. :) See if you can make out who any of these guys are… yes they are somewhat blurry as the trucks were moving and I was standing in another crowd.

From there we went to check out the Rockefeller Center (instead of just walking by it) and to escape the heat! Some random shots of the building inside and plaza outside!

Then being so close to Times Square we jetted over to the M&M store to find some coconut flavored m&ms that my sister had been raving about!

The following day we decided to go back to the High Line Park (an old railway) to enjoy the breeze off of the Hudson River and grassy shaded areas! (also because Cordie HAD to have these tacos from a specific place again)

I love all the flowers they have along the path… you can see the old railroad tracks… to read about the history look here. There are gorgeous shots of the city and NJ as well and nice angled benches you can lay on…as well as a little place for kiddos to play in the water!
