One day of our vacation we went into the city to visit JR's sister Jayne. We planned to meet up at her favorite pizza joint (umm, delicious pizza) and then do a little sight seeing...toddler style. We grabbed some ice cream after pizza and then headed to the M&M store. Eli loved it there and had trouble holding our hand. We grabbed a pound of candy in every color imaginable and then went to Toy R Us. They had a huge 3 or 4 story store with a ferris wheel inside. We bought tickets and Eli got to ride on his first ferris wheel ride. Eli was really excited because his Jayne bought him a new angry bird too. He loved holding her hand as they walked through the city (I was chopped liver but that's okay with me).
All throughout the city were people dressed up in character outfits. We saw Elmo, Cookie Monster, Mickey Mouse, Mario and Luigi, Sponge Bob, Hello Kitty, etc. You could have your picture taken and they accepted tips. Eli thought this was cool. Mickey Mouse actually picked Eli up and I wasn't really sure how he would act but he was good with it.
Last stop of the day was a trip to the Top of the Rock. There are some amazing views from up there. Eli liked the cool elevator. It was a little cool up there and we didn't stay up there long because it started raining.
