I have an agenda for NYC. This agenda has no deadline and is constantly revised and rewritten in my mind.  Most times, my New York City agenda is not my own—between my sister and I, we could keep this whole city occupied with our itineraries and running to-do’s of where to go’s and what to see’s.

This past Tuesday, Amy and I simultaneously checked another item off our list: The New York City Ballet at Lincoln Center.

In all honesty, we both agreed our motives for purchasing the tickets were not with a passion for ballet, but more to satisfy our imaginary NYC-excursion quota. But boy did we underestimate the magnificence of Lincoln Center and the talent of the ballerinas waltzing within. In one word, the experience was magical. The graceful pleas, glittering lights, and whimsical music were captivating. I was in awe of the fanciful footwork from each ballerina. As we left a shimmering Lincoln Center that night, we marveled at our good fortune as a light snowfall accompanied our departure.

And with a curtsy, that’s my review.

If you are feeling the need for culture – tickets are on sale for the ballet we saw: Sleeping Beauty http://www.nycballet.com/company/rep.html?rep=168
