Roman Holiday in New York

Last night we went to Bryant Park for their weekly open air cinema and, appropriately, I felt,  this week they were showing Roman Holiday. I think that might actually be a sign.

It was magical; there was something so special about watching the beautiful Audrey Hepburn in the equally stunning surroundings. The tower blocks rise up out of the ground like beautiful monsters, whilst the trees act like shields for the hundreds of people lounging in the calm sanctity of the park.
The film didn't start until the sun went down so we picnicked, watching the lights of the buildings gradually turn on whilst the natural light sank and the city at night slowly come to life.

It was magical. Truly, I was spellbound.
