NY City - Candy Galore

Yesterday, we spent an afternoon exploring M&M World in Times Square. And, can I just say, this must be one of the most incredible destinations, especially if you have children or if you have a serious habit for chocolate of the M&M variety. M&M World. It's so much more than just a retail store where you can buy your familiar brown and yellow 1 ounce bags of M&M candies. It's more like a full-blown entertainment complex dedicated to the colorful fun of M&M'S chocolate candies. And, if you think I'm overstating things a bit, let me assure you, I'm not. M&M World is a 3-story immersion into all things M&M's equipped with all kinds of interactive areas for kids and all kinds of M&M's in literally every color palette and color combination! It really is soooooo much more than candy! Paige and Taylor absolutely LOVED this place, but who wouldn't...just look at the pictures (which don't fully do M&M World justice by the way), and then decide for yourself! Oh, and I'm going to switch the arrangement of photos up just slightly. Rather than posting the pictures in their chronological order - arriving at the store, milling about the exhibits, selecting the candies, etc. - I am going to post the pictures beginning with the post-shopping indulgence of the M&M's candies by Paige and Taylor right outside of M&M World, sitting on the streetcorner, in all their M&M candy glory with their little hands digging into their bags for more and more fistfuls of M&M's.
