New York City!
This weekend Josh and I went with Brandon and Mindy to New York! We are only like 2 1/2 or 3 hours from there. We left Friday after I got off work and got there about eight. Brandon's brother has an apartment in NYC so we stayed there. We got there and parked the car and took the subway to Times Square. I have never been to NYC so it was quite the experience. I was a little freaked out when we got on the subway. There were so many people and it was so dirty to me. Then on one stop this homeless guy got on the subway and was like "Attention Everyone!" I thought we were dead and he had a bomb or something. But he just said he wanted some extra change and stuff. Phew. Then we got to Times Square and it was AMAZING! The lights and the people and everything going on was awesome! Although I hated the smell. It all smells like smoke and garbage. Josh and I just walked around Times Square and saw all the neat things. Then we went back to the apartment and went to sleep. We got up at like 7 so we could see everything in one day. We started off by going to the Gershwin Theatre to see if we could get tickets to WICKED 2:00 show. We got there at about 9:30 and the box office opened at 10. There was already a huge line so we got in it. When we got to the front they told us we were in the wrong line and we needed to go to a different door. So we hurried and ran to the other door and we were first in line! Then these people came and tried to butt us but the guy in charge got mad at them and told them to go to the end of the line. So we ended up getting FIFTH ROW TICKETS TO WICKED! It was awesome!! I have never seen as good of a musical in my life. They had AMAZING voices. Before Wicked we went to the Statue of Liberty and Ground Zero. It was really fun. We didn't stop laughing. Then while Mindy and I were at the play Josh and Brandon walked around with Ethan in Central Park and stuff. I guess like 3 people asked them if they were both the Fathers and they got asked to fill out a gay rights paper. Ha ha everyone thought they were gay! It was pretty funny. Then we went and ate at "The Best Pizza" in New York, or so they say. It was pretty good. Then we went and bought the new Twilight book, Breaking Dawn. I have only read about 100 pages of it but it looks really good! I'm excited to read it! But we had a great time in NYC! I can't believe we are so close and can drive there and back in no time at all. I hope we take advantage of that a lot while we live here!

ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to live so close to NYC! I went there awhile ago and absolutely loved it! I have always wanted to see Wicked. I hear it is amazing. I can't believe you were on the 5th row! When we were there we saw Les Miserables and Phantom of the Opera. I highly recommend them...maybe Les Mis even more than the other!
