The Parent Trip- Day 4

On Sunday we went back to Times Square to check out that TKTS booth to possibly get tickets to an ON Broadway show. The line was suuuuper long, so I waited in it and let the parents wander around for a bit. 

We ended up getting tickets for a matinee showing of Chicago. We had a couple hours before it started- so we decided to check out Central Park...

By horse and carriage!


It was soooo fun and so awesome. We went around the entire park and got to see many neat parts of the park...


Our horse driver was also our tour guide and showed us a ton of areas of the park that were used in films.. Like Elf, Maid in Manhattan, Friends, Home Alone 2, etc. It was really neat :]  

  

After the ride we checked out Midtown a bit before heading to the show, and my parents got a hot dog :] they looove them.


Now this is the absolute WORST part of the day. In fact it pretty much ruined the rest of the day for me. :[  A bunch of guys suddenly got into this huge fight right in front of us, and in the process they knocked over this stroller that had a little baby in it..  

You can see it on the left of the picture.. :[  After the fight we saw the dad pick up the stroller while holding his little baby that was crying :[ It really hurt my heart to see that and I wasn't able to talk about it right away with my parents because it was hurting so much, so instead I got angry (sorry mom and dad =/ )

Anywaayyysss, we headed back to the Theater District to see Chicago.. But we still had a little extra time before going in- so I couldn't help but stop and get something sweet. Strawberry & Nutella Crepe. yummmm


Chicago! You can't really see it from this picture- but its starring Kara DioGaurdi- one of American Idol's judges. She was amazing.. the whole show was amazing. Definitely worth going to- we all loved it so much. 


For dinner I took them to Shake Shack- This place is considered the IN N Out of the East coast! Except.. they sell beer and wine as well, along with a lottt of different shakes.

  

They have bombbb burgers. The buns are potato bread buns. (+1 point for Shake Shack) And they have cheese fries- definitely does not match up to animal fries though (+2 points for IN N Out).


Buttttt, as I mentioned earlier- they sell beer and wine, along with a ton of different kinds of shakes.. (+1 point for Shake Shack). Conclusion- IN N Out would have competition if Shake Shack came to the West coast. And vice versa. 

After that I went home to relax a bit and get a head start on these blogs.. Little did I know- the next day was a 24 hour sick day for me.
