Broadway

Before Ashley and I came to New York, we decided that during our time here we were going to work hard and play heard.  What we meant by that was that during our down time from training classes and field ministry, we were going to see and experience as much of New York as we could.

This past weekend we experienced Broadway for the first time.  On Friday we stood outside in the rain to get discount tickets for Memphis.  Memphis takes place in Memphis, TN in the 1950s.  It was the 2010 Tony Award winner for Best Musical.  We really enjoyed the singing and dancing and the story of forbidden love.

On Saturday, we went to see The Lion King.  The Lion King was a very different show, but we enjoyed it as well.  We know the story from the movie so it was the set and the costumes that made this a fun experience.  We had a great time at each of these shows and were so glad we had the opportunity to take in this aspect of New York City!

Here we are just after seeing The Lion King.
