But first a few pictures,.........

Empire State Building
One of many nice things about New York are its theaters, shows and concerts. We’ve seen most of the popular plays [Book of Mormon, Wicked, Kinky Boots (not my choice), The Lion King, Spiderman, Nice Work If You Can Get It, The Trip to Bountiful, etc.] in the past but yesterday we took one of the girlfriends grilfreinds with us to see Aladdin. Surprisingly it was a good show even if it was primarily aimed for a younger audience. After the show we went over to Zabb Elee (a nice Thai restaurant) for dinner.
We’ve been visiting Manhattan for a month or more for the past few years and I intend on adding to this thread over the years.
If anyone else would like to chime in on things to do while in Manhattan, feel free.
While in New York we’ll stay in different apartments advertised on various vacation rental sites. Read the remarks visitors have left, if you intend to do the same. Sometimes these apartments aren’t what they are advertised. In the past the girlfriend has preferred the Upper West Side (because of the park), but this year she wanted to stay in the Chelsea area so she could be close to The High Line.
If you're interested, on the requirements to obtain a tourist Visa for the states for a Thai you can visit the Embassy of the United States (Bangkok, Thailand) website here and here. Good luck. It can be done. The girlfriend has a ten year tourist Visa.
