The New York City skyline as seen from the bus    The New York City skyline as seen from the bus    The Ed Sullivan Theatre is the home of CBS' Late Show with David Letterman. I remember when Letterman was in that little studio on NBC.  He used to give away Mayonnaise as prizes.    This is a theatre that has been turned into a church.  It is Times Square Church.    Times Square Church    Some of the skyline from up close.       Here you can see Times Square.    My wife is very excited to visit the Hershey's store at Times Square.  It's closed, we had to come back later.    The LCD laden buildings of Times Square    Times Square, New York City    The junction of Times Square and West 45th street    Finally, the Hershey's store opened.  They apparently sell the same candy that you can buy at your local grocery store.  However, this candy is better...  Because it costs more!  About the only difference is they have some special packaging for some items in this store.    We took the Subway to the National Museum of Natural History in NYC.  Here you see some old bones.    Here is a good demonstration of why man is extinct.  This dinosaur is easily able to consume this full sized human child.    A Tyrannosaurus (skeleton)     This is some sort of Brontosaurus or something similar.    This is some kid.  Why'd I take this picture?    We walked past a window and saw this dinosaur weathervane on a building off in the distance. This is at max zoom on my camera.    Here you see the amazing flying Pterodactyls and flying turtles of the dinosaur era.    There were several students sketching the various dinosaurs.       Actually, I am pretty sure this turtle didn't fly. I suppose it was a sea turtle.    Now, this large land turtle is about to eat this unsuspecting family!    Page 1  |  Page 2  |  Page 3  |  Page 4  |  Page 5
