day in NYC hi, My 6 year old daughter are coming to NYC next Saturday(from PA). We will be there from 10ish to 7pm. I figured we would see Rockerfeller center, Ellen's Stardust Diner, bought tickets for Lion King at 2. Can anyone out there give us anymore ideas so we stay in the general area? Any advise too would be appreciated! Thanks so much!
