Chris's Closet
Thursday night my sister sent me a text saying that my niece had a last minute casting with Gap Kids in NYC the next day. I was so excited for her, I told my sister she has to go, it's a great opportunity and so on. Then my sister says, "Well you have to go with us because you know your way around New York, I'll pay for you." At first I kept telling her no it's too much money for you to pay for me, but after all of her insisting I happily obliged.
Our flight left at 6am, we arrived in NYC at about 7:30 am we took a taxi to the hotel and thank God we were able to check in early. We dropped off our luggage and headed to the nearest diner for food. After getting dressed we headed straight to the casting. My niece wanted to experience the subway, so we took the train part way to the destination and then hopped into a cab (sidenote: NYC cab drivers must be conserving gas because no one wanted to turn the air on, so we were left to ride in hot stuffy taxis!!) my subway skills need some refreshing.
After the casting we walked through Time's Square, my niece took pictures with the costumed cartoon characters, we watched some break dancing, ate lunch and saw a random lady walking around topless. We stopped at Madame Tussaud's, although I have been before they hadn't, and who can resist the wax museum. We had a great time taking pictures with the wax figures, the view of Time's Square was awesome, and my niece ate a funnel cake that was not very good.
Here are snapshots of the museum and what I wore during my 24 hours in NYC!
