Trip to New York City with Asha

My cousin Asha came down from Toronto for Canadian Thanksgiving. It was so wonderful to spend the weekend together. Unfortunately, I had several tests the coming week, so I did have to spend a lot of time studying, but we did take a day trip into New York City to check out a few of the sites.
First we took the train from New Haven to Grand Central
which is a site itself
The walk from the train station to times square was fun. There are always some interesting street performers in Times Square. Asha wasn't quite sure what to make of this one....
but she was sucked in by lady liberty herself
(or maybe himself, we couldn't quite tell)
That's more like it!
Our walk around the city showed us several famous sites, many street vendors, wonderful people watching....and even some nature nestled right in the middle of the city. Who would have thought!
Any nectar in there, fella?
With the Brooklyn Bridge behind me.
After strolling around town for a while, we went a saw a show: The Drowsy Chaperone - which was a bit different than other musicals I've seen, but quite entertaining!
When we got out of the theatre, times square was bathed in lights.
Ah, the city that never sleeps!

The next day back at my apartment, we had to do some modeling with our top of the line shirts we just HAD to buy the day before....

Lookin' good! Lookin' Good!!

Gotta love those cousins!
