The next two days in NYC were amazing as well. On Saturday my friends and I went to Soho to go shopping- because we hadn't done enough shopping in Times Square :). We first had to figure out the Subway system. It actually wasn't as hard as we thought it would be. But anyway, there are so many cute boutiques and name-brand stores in Soho. If you love shopping, this is the place for you! For dinner we only had appetizers because we were going to eat after the show. We saw Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark.
It was an okay show. The stunts and talent were good, but there are a few numbers in the show that could use some work. We ate dinner at Ellen's Stardust Diner- home of the singing waitstaff. It was so much fun and the food was really good! All of the waiters and waitresses are trying to make it on Broadway so they are making their living by waiting and singing at this restaurant. They perform many different types of songs and it is just an overall fun experience!
Don't you just love Times Square at night?
The next day we went to The High Line. The High Line is a park built on elevated railroad tracks in the Meatpacking District. I think it is a hidden wonder of NYC.
The views of the city are incredible.
I love this art. It is on one of the buildings adjacent to the High Line. It isn't something I would have expected to see.
On Sunday night my friends and I were lucky enough to attend The Tony Awards. Even though our seats were in the 3rd Mezzanine, we could still see the stage and performers very well. The performances were amazing! This year there were many children performers in lead roles. It is incredible to see how talented some of these kids are- singing, acting, and dancing! I wish I could be half as talented as they are.
Neil Patrick Harris hosted the Awards for the fourth time. He is a great entertainer and can definitely sing! My friends and I flew home on Monday morning but we cannot wait until our next trip to the Big Apple, whenever that may be!
