Last week I barely had any school and therefore spent a large part of the week and weekend popping all over the island of Manhattan.
Over the weekend I was so lucky to see some of my uni friends perform on Broadway with their dance company. The show was called Black Hole, White Rabbit (a modern interpretation of Alice and Wonderland). I thoroughly enjoyed it, and of course it was brilliant to see my friends show off their talent on a Broadway stage!
Here are some of the dancers releasing balloons that were used in a (very cool) dance into the city sky… (the environmentally-conscious Californian in me was cringing, but it was a cute moment nonetheless).
Earlier that day I had brunch in the Meatpacking District and wandered around the High Line. The weather was gorgeously sunny… thus seemingly doubling NYC's population!
I also swung by the MoMA. I not only love the art at the MoMA, but the museum building itself. Its courtyard is a nice place to cool down on a warm day. You can look at the sculptures (and the people!) as a fountain bubbles and a breeze wafts through the trees.
I love this piece because it incorporates the viewer into the art and the art into the viewers.
And this Liechtenstein makes pop-art evocative.
During the week I was in the Meatpacking/High Line area again.
Had lunch outside at a place called Bubby's.
Honestly we just got Bloody Marys because they came in mason jars. I think we would have been much happier with lemonade.
We did a spot of rooftop pool exploring at the Gansevoort Hotel.
We stopped in Chelsea Market with a hankering for dessert.
We came across the Doughnuttery, a little doughnut stand with some unique gourmet flavours.
We plumped for three cinnamon sugar and three lemon poppyseed.
Which turned out to be brilliant choices. We enjoyed our plunder whilst the market buzzed along.
Before waving goodbye to Chelsea and heading back to uni, happy and full.
