| Today was really cool.
Our first day in NY started with us walking through Central Park into Times Square, Midtown.
Central Park was really nice, and kinda hard to believe how nice it is, in the middle of such a metropolitan place like Manhattan.
There are hotdog vendors and street hawkers on every corner of Manhattan, especially through Central Park, but they don't hurt much.
Times Square was pretty cool and we went and got tickets for The Producers on Broadway.
We went for a walk around midtown and saw some pretty cool sights including:
The Rockerfeller Centre, Comprising the giant GE building (of which i'll try put a video on here) and
Radio City Music Hall
St Patrick's Cathedral
The Chrysler Building, The prettiest building in the New York skyline in my opinion.
Grand Central Terminal, which was pretty cool, but still just a train staion
The New York Public Library
Empire State Building
And The Giant Macy's
It was all really great, but tiring, and we didn't even get time for a nanna nap before we had to go out on Broadway for our show.
The show was really great to see and the security guard told us to move into better seats (we bought the cheapest) since it was so empty.
Afterwards the plan was to go home to bed until we walked out of the theatre into Times Square again.
It was so unbelievable with all the billboards, lights, people, buildings, traffic.
I felt like an absolute bumpkin walking around tripping over my jaw. |
