Toy Store, Trains, and Thunderstorms

Today we took the subway to Midtown to go see some things.  We realized that although we enjoy walking 100s of blocks in order to see a lot, we can't do very much because we spend all day walking.  So a quick train ride and we were there. 
The glass box is the Apple Store.  Finn pointed and said "Apple!!"
 
 We took Finn to FAO Schwartz.
 Home of the piano from the movie "Big".
 Finn looked around for what he says is "exactly what I wanted."

 Tosh and Zoltar.  Kids...dreams really do come true.
 So many toys...
 So many cars...
Finn picked out an Angry Birds toy. He has no clue what Angry Birds even are but he loved it.
Afterwards we set down in a little courtyard outsidee and ate our bagels.  I wanted a picture of my bagel but the camera man didn't follow my "I am chewing , one second" cue.
I am becoming a fan of bagels after eating them here. They are very different (aka better) than the ones back home.
 The Waldof Astoria...
  We walked over to Grand Central Station.  
It was the largest gathering of people I have ever witnessed. 
 You cannot tell from the pictures.
  

 It was really neat in there but it was a little bit too crowded for our liking.  We took pictures and were out the door.
We were eating lunch at a small Chinese restaurant when heavy rain hit.  As we finished our meal, the waitress came over and told Tosh that we should stay longer since it was raining so hard. She even brought us another kettle of tea.  We set there and waited on the rain to quit. Finn got to play Angry Birds. 



Side note-  today was dry shampoo day.  I put my hair in a bun to sleep.  I pulled it down this morning, used a little baby powder combed through, and done.  For the friends that told me to tell them how it goes, I will update you in a week and we will see!
