Rain
Tuesday June 5, 2012
For the first time on this trip, the rain has actually inconvenienced us. It was a wet walk from the Grand Central railway station to the UN Buildings, but since the tour is completely indoors, we weren't really affected that much in the end.
The UN tour was awesome. We were lucky to view the General Assembly Hall and the Security Council meeting rooms since they were empty and not in session, so we were able to take some good photos of those areas. They look just like they do on TV! There were also some great displays about peace and the Millennium Goals, as well as information about how the UN works and its structure and purpose. We didn't see Helen Clark though.
But the highlight of today was Avenue Q. Absolutely brilliant, an excellent performance by the cast and hilariously enjoyable, I was laughing so hard, I was actually in tears. Would recommend to anyone with a good sense of humour and who isn't offended easily!
