Times Square through Belle's eyes

We rode the subway from 96th St to the 40th St exit of the subway. I left us enough time to walk through Times Square to the theater, which is at 53rd St. Belle was mesmerized and excited by Times Square! She gripped my hand tightly, and her magic wand with similar fervor. With nearly every step, Belle exclaimed, "Look!" She marveled at the television-like billboards on the buildings (she especially enjoyed the huge screen above the Disney Store, as it displayed all of her favorite Disney characters; she also chuckled at the images projected on the M&M store). Belle questioned the bank of pay phones, which she encountered for the first time ("why would someone need to use that phone?" Very good question.) Belle liked to look, but not touch (or take pictures with) the various costumed characters (Minnie Mouse, Spider-Man, Elmo, and and more). I loved seeing Times Square through Belle's eyes.
