New York City Day 1

So after being delayed for over 2 hours last night, today was amazing.
Starting at the Rockefeller, and a trip to the top of the Rock for some insane views, I walked to Times Square, Grand Central Station, The New York Public Library, down 5th Ave past the Empire State (which i will ascend later), down to Madison Square Park for lunch. Then from there all the way up broadway, past Macy's (which had a huge sale), through Times Square again, all the way up to the Columbus Circle and the south west corner of Central Park. Across the bottom of Central Park to the 5th Ave Apple Store. I love that place - coolest store in the world!
Then it rained cats and dogs, so back to the hotel for some dry clothes, and on to a tour of the UN.
Over 250 photos later!
Dinner at the Comfort Diner on 45th St, a stroll through Times Square again - with all the lights and stuff it looks like Vegas!

Tomorrow is going to be bad weather apparently, so i'm thinking about going to some museums and indoorsy type things.

At the hotel i'm staying at they have these alarm clocks/stereo type things that you dock your ipod in which is really cool, so you can listen to your music on speakers, but also wake up to it when the alarm goes off. This morning i woke to #36 - Dave Matthews Band Live at Red Rocks 15/08/1995. A great start to the day!
