New York City Weekend - Day Two


After lunch yesterday in the Theater District, we ventured down to the West Village and visited some consignment shops and got so great deals on high end designer clothes.  We made it back to my brother's apartment in time to clean up and head out for dinner and then see the musical, Motown.  Motown was a great show and for those like myself who lived through the 25 year period of time covered, the music was a remembrances of my teen years, as well as a reminder of some of the nation's turbulent history and the segregation and racism that was so predominant across the South.

After the show we checked out several gay bars before ending up at XL, a dance club on 42nd Street near 10th Avenue.  Today we are going to a matinee showing of Kinky Boots and will do dinner at a "Mediterranean meets Middle East” restaurant on Mulberry Street with my niece who is very involved in the restaurant/food scene in the City.  Odds are we will end up at XL again tonight.
