NYC Day 2

After a much needed rest we were up and ready to go for our second day in New York. Today was cool because we spent a lot of time at Rockefeller Center. We got to see all the flags outside and recognized places that have been on TV and in movies. We took the NBC Studio Tour, which was interesting, but not as great as I thought it was going to be. While we were on the tour they told us you could get tickets to see Jimmy Fallon's (Sp?) monologue and standby tickets for his show that day. We got the tickets and then did some more site-seeing. We went back to Time's Square for a little while, had lunch, and then came back to the "Rock" to get in line for the monologue. That was really neat to get to see Jimmy Fallon in person and to hear his jokes before he puts them in his show. One of my favorite jokes was his thank you jokes it was; "Thank you mirrored sunglasses for letting me look at you, looking at me, look at you, looking at me..." He was really funny. After the monologue we had to wait to see if we would get into to see the show, but we were numbers 86-92 and they let in the first 70 people, so we just missed it. At least we got to see the monologue.
After that we did a little shopping at H&M (which I am a big fan of now) and I bought a really cute dress and a shirt. It's not very expensive and the clothes are really cute. We also went shopping at some souvenir shops and got a lot of magnets!
For some reason I feel like I am leaving something out, but I can't remember, if I remember I will post it later.
