Sisters in the City

Sorry for the delayed post.

Katherine came to visit this last week and we had a mini sister vacation! Unfortunately I worked most of the time that she was here (during the day at least), so when I was at work she went off and did her own thing. I think she went to some museums and did touristy things. She also saw a bunch of shows without me, which made me sad.

The night she flew in I met her at my apartment and then we went into the city to go see On The Twentieth Century with KRISTIN CHENOWITH!!!! Ugh it was so amazing, it was my inner theater nerd's dream come true to see KCheno perform. That night it was pouring outside, which Katherine wasn't happy about, but luckily when we left my apartment to walk to the subway station it wasn't raining, and then it started up again when we got to the subway station. It sprinkled a bit when we were walking back from the theater but over all we managed to avoid the worst of it. In fact, it was kind of weird weather the entire time she was here. Overall it'd be fairly nice but it was still kind of muggy and overcast, and it'd sprinkle a lot.

On her last night here we went to go see Aladdin, which was amazing!! We saw James Monroe Iglehart as the Genie, which was so cool. I remember seeing him in Into the Woods and Spelling Bee and all these shows that he used to do in the Bay, and now he's on Broadway! Very cool. Afterwards we waited at the stage door and got pictures with him and talked to him a little bit about how we were from the Bay and that we used to see him perform. He introduced himself to us, and we were so starstruck. We left the stage door and went to Coldstone to get ice cream, because it felt appropriate.

Overall it was a fun little vacation for the both of us, and it was nice spending time with my sister! Just waiting for the next family member to come visit so I have another excuse to eat good food and see Broadway shows :)
