On Top of the World

On Wednesday we got up and got out onto Broadway. As has become our routine here, we're constantly on the lookout for new foods to try. As we were walking down the street, we spotted a lady selling churros. Ever had them? Nick loves them. Who wouldn't? 

We found a little cafe a block down and ordered pancakes and a breakfast burrito to go. We were on our way to buy tickets for the musical "Newsies".  

We were the first people in line to buy tickets from the lottery, which is where names are drawn and tickets are offered at a discount. We were excited when our names were picked!

We had two hours to spend before the show started, so we walked around Times Square and the theatre district. 

The show was terrific! We had fifth-row seats on the main floor, so we could see everything with amazing detail.

After the show, we walked to Rockefeller Center, where the Today Show and Saturday Night Live are produced. We went to the observation deck called the Top of the Rock. The view of the city was amazing!


After that, we went back to our friend's and hung out with them. Below is a picture of Nick with Graham and Imogen.


They made us a special dinner because it was our last night with them. It was a Chinese feast, and everything was delicious. What kinds of dishes do you recognize?

    How was the trip Mr. Joseph. I have always wanted to visit New York, but never got a chance to. My dad drove there to pick up a car that he leased. I might go one day, and I might visit where you and Nick went.
