Nasdaq sits right on Times Square, and today we paid it a visit again. And we were not alone, with all the market activity the place was teeming with news vans and newscasters were all over the streets filming for their respective stations. This definitely felt like New York!

Will those tigers near the Nasdaq keep a bear market away?

Since we were starting to feel the New York vibes, we decided to head on down to another truly New York place, the Rockefeller center. On the way we saw Christie’s, the auction house, and we decided to go in and have a look around. Bad idea! Now Grace wants to buy some of the paintings we saw there! Someone help me convince her there are better things to do in New York than be stuck in an auction ;), plus we can’t very well drag a 14th century work of art along with us Besides, I want to spend the time seeing new things in New York, not bidding. I can do that on ebay

Once we left Christie’s, we were just steps away from the Rockefeller center, NBC studios, and the ice skating rink.

We then had coffee with the editor of www.womansday.com, one of the leading women’s magazines here in the US. It was very interesting to meet her and she gave some great ideas about what to do and see around the big apple.
