one of may favorite days from when i was a kid was when we got to go see the christmas show at radio city music hall was a new york city day trip got to see the show then you got to spend some time in the city so we decided to go to the empire state building the line was really long but the view was amazing and im afraid of heights so kind of an interesting expierence for me but it was alot of fun i believe we were in what was called the observation tower and if i remember right i think that it was on the 86th floor but im not sure it was a long time ago anyone else have any similar expierences?

yes. i am a jersey girl and i grew up every winter my grandma would take me into the city on the bus. it is such a good memory of the times we shared. when you are a kid the city is awe-inspiring. radio city was so beautiful and grand. walking the streets and looking up at the skyscrapers was an image as i child that i have never forgotten.

Yes, I had the same excitement you had going up to one of the tallest buildings in the world, and to one of the most wonderful music halls. That was an unforgetable experience. I had once been to a similar high rise tower in another country. That was in Malaysia. The City of Kuala Lumpur. The Petronas Tower. That also became the tallest building in the world at one time.

the furthest ive been out of the country is canada so that much be really unique to go to a different country to visit historical buildings and such was never really that crazy about flying though.

In all the times I have been to New York I have never been inside Radio City. I guess I'll make it one of these days when I start to travel more often again. I've never done the touristy stuff there and I always say I'm going to get around to it.
