New York
I was looking through pictures from my summer recently, and I came across a bunch from my vacation. So, I thought that it would be perfect to write about in a blog! This summer my sister and I went to New York. It was my graduation present from my aunt and uncle, who live there. They live in an apartment in Manhatten so it's right in the middle of the city. It wasn't the first time I've been there, but it's just as exciting every time! I was so anxious when the plane landed to get out and begin exploring. We arrived on a sunny Thursday afternoon and couldn't wait to start our extravaganzas! Being a girl, of course this meant shopping! Our first day we went only a few places, but the next day was an all day affair. We went all around the city including 5th avenue, broadway, Times Spuare, Soho, and Macy's. We had a blast. Then the next night we went to a musical. We went to see "Curtains" and it was so much fun. I love musicals so this was right up my alley. The city, in general, is just great and I love it! There's always people around and always something going on. It's so exciting to keep busy the whole time. We only stayed until Sunday, but loved every second of it. Although I have to admit, by the end of our fast pace time in the city, I was ready to go back to the suburbs!

I also had the pleasure of visiting New York this year, but I went in February so it was really cold but I still loved it. I stayed in an apartment on Times Square and it was crazy how their is so much activity the entire night. So different from home. I did not do as much as shopping as you did but I still had a great time just seeing the sights and living the city life for a few days.
I love New York, it's always a trip. My cousin lives there so I get to see him every once in a while and theres always some show or something going on in the city. I used to live in DC and alot of people were from New York. I would always talk to them about how much stuff there was for them to do only to be dissapointed that they meant New York, not New York City. Sometimes it's tough to think that New York is a heck of alot bigger than just the city. I learned this the hard way through some pretty mad New Yorkers.
