A few more places in New York, Road Trip Ch. 7

Madison Square Garden



I arrived in Penn Station, the train depot under Madison Square Garden, and took a picture of the Empire State Building in the distance.


Basketball game entrance: not on this side.


Much better.


View from the nosebleeds - Knicks vs. Pacers. I absolutely loved the crowd. I'm considering becoming a Knicks fan because of their intensity. Every miss was booed and every point was cheered. Incredible.


Anyone recognize the GT alum?


Anyone recognize the really famous guy?

The Bronze Man. A bronze man. The first and best that I saw during my brief travels (including the wannabes in New Orleans)

The Museum of Natural History.

I wasn't feeling well so I only snapped a few pictures.




Dinosaurs right when you walk in.


The Big Bang Theory.


I wish I would have gone inside of it.

Macy's

I walked into Macy's expecting it to be a larger version of the mall department store I'm so familiar with. I was also looking for a coat. Seeing only ladies' apparel, I went up the escalator a few floors. I saw another escalator to the 5th floor. Another to the 6th. Macy's had 9 floors - ten if you include the basement. It was incredible. The coolest part for me were the wooden escalators used from the 4th floor and up.



Neat!
