NYC Day 6 - Macy's

So near the end of our last day, we decided to pop in to Macy's just to see what it was like in there. It used to seem like something that had a really good reputation for quality and prestige, although I can't really remember where I got that impression from. Anyway, we went inside and found out that it was like one massive Wal-Mart. There's a huge mess from people going through the clothes and stuff, and the music in some spots was loud and unpleasant. The quality of things they sold was not even as upscale as I had anticipated. I kind of thought it would be one of those places where I could window shop and not be able to buy anything, but it turned out to be alright and we got some shirts for my dad for a pretty good price. It was impressively huge though, and they had these really interesting wooden escalators that were super old and kind of rickety. The highlight of my visit was the meal at McD's...yay for unhealthy American fast food? Their burgers do come in boxes made of nicer cardboard, but I'm not sure how good that is to the environment. Also, their ketchup packets say "Fancy Ketchup" on them; I wonder that that means...Anyway I was sad that Macy's turned out to be kind of bland, but that is okay~
