June 22nd - Day 12

Third day in New-York
After a good night of sleep, we headed back to the city that never sleeps to discover one of the most beautiful views of N-Y. The top of the Rock gives an extraordinary view of Central Park from one side and huge sky scrapers from the other. It is the place to go if you want to be breath taken and admire the city from the top. Cameras are very welcome up there to create magical memories like we did.
When the visit of the Rock was over, all the exchange students had some free time to enjoy and discover other sides of the city. Some of us went shopping while others decided to explore some museums such as the MET , the Guggenheim and the MOMA or visiting famous places like the 5th avenue, Central Park, the Grand Central Station or Time Square.
The afternoon was completed with the Broadway show Cinderella, a wonderful adaptation of the well-known fairy tale with a touch of modernity around the second part of the play that totally refreshes the story. The entire exchange group, I think, enjoyed the show and was pleased to discover Broadway’s exiting world.
After some free time in Time Square and a delicious meal in a pizzeria, we suddenly became celebrities. In fact, we had the privilege to ride two gigantic limo’s around the Big Apple like superstars. We surely had a great time all together, creating new memories and friends singing the same songs and dancing.
Once we all got dropped of downtown, the excitement was in the air. Indeed, we had great plans for the night…We were all going to throw a flash mob in the middle of Time Square on the music Wobble. A little bit nervous but ready to have a good time, all the exchange students started dancing and were even joined by some people that were in the mood to celebrate this trip with us! We surely are a great group and we recognized that night how awesome this trip is and how much we do not want to go home.
We left that night the city with a bittersweet taste but we all will remember how magical these three days in N-Y were.
