Welcome to New York, It's been waiting for you.

After my amazing Disney Summer, I was finally reunited with my best friend, Alice for a week of amazing memories in New York City.

Firstly, my plane came into JFK at a different terminal than it was supposed to so i had to haul my three overly heavy bags across a busy road, over a car park, into a lift and onto the airtrain to the terminal where she was waiting for me. When we eventually together, the first thing I did was dump my bags with her and run to the loo as I was desperate for a wee. 

We then got in the queue for the cabs to the city. This was it, we were finally going back to New York City, after 4 years of waiting. Here's a little picture of us last time we went. >

We got to our hotel which was Affinia Fifty which was on 50th and 3rd. It was a gorgeous hotel! The bed was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in, especially after 3 months in Disney Housing beds which are not comfortable at all.  It was a 'boutique hotel' and had a door man and was far too fancy for us but in our budget so we were happy! The consierge was amazing and just loved to tell stories of his fabulous New York city life and how he once paid $400 for Book of Mormon tickets at Christmas but when you need money, you find a way to make it work, which made me think he was an escort or something.

For people who know me, they will know I'm an avid baker but i HATE the taste of cake but i decided that with NYC having so many amazing famous bakeries, maybe i'll try some. I did try some, I still hate cake. Go figure?

One of our dreams would to see a show on Broadway and we fulfilled this dream. Twice. 

Not only did we see Wicked and If/Then staring the amazing, wonderful talented Idina Menzel, we just happened to MEET THE QUEEN OF BROADWAY/THE WORLD/ ELSA herself. The last photo is our selfie with her as she wanted to sign everyones programmes and talk to everyone, she couldn't stop for photos.

We spent alot, far too much time probably in Rockerfeller Center. First of all, the NBC store is the best shop known to man. When we went in, one of the employees told us that we could get tickets for Seth Meyers monologue for Late Night with Seth Meyers. People who know me, know how much i love Saturday Night Live, espiecally Weekend Update and I think that Seth is one of the funniest men on tv and I'm kind of in love with him so I was espeically up for this. We got our tickets for the monologue, which is where he practices jokes for his main show later in the night and he has some chit chat with the very small audience and he spoke to me. I died a little inside, I'm not going to lie, I'm a bit of a Seth Fangirl.

We went to the Top Of The Rock and it has amazing amazing views of NYC and you also get to get an amazing photo of yourself taken as you go in. Pure gold.

Another 30 Rock story, is the night we waited outside all night from 2am to get tickets for Jimmy Fallon. We met some lovely friendly people in the queue and we were the front of the queue. However, we didn't get into the taping and we were sad. End of story.

We went to the Natural History Museum which i kept calling the National history museum and we had so much fun and sat down a lot on all the convient benches. Thanks Natural History Museum!

We also decided to walk over the Brooklyn bridge even though we both hate walking but it was a great experience apart from the fact, you can take a turn off to end up at the park under the bridge but we got lost, ended up walking like another mile into Brooklyn and got lost! We saw hope when we found a Starbucks, but it was CLOSED?!?! What use was that Starbucks. I am still disappointed with you to this day. We went to a Five Guys and got the Subway back to the city. BYE BROOKLYN.

                         

So all in all, I had an amazing time. See ya real soon
