It's me, Matthew. I am writing about the great day I had in the city with my Uncle Tony. He took me to New York to see the "Soul of Shaolin." It was awesome. We had front row tickets and I met one of the characters that was in the play. The play is about a child named Hui Guang, who was separated from his mother when he was just a baby. He was rescued and raised by the monks of the Shaolin Temple and taught the ways of Shaolin Kung Fu. Years later, he was reunited with his mother. One of the scenes that I loved the most was when one of the monks threw a needle through a very thick piece of glass. Seeing this play makes me want to study Kung Fu again.
After the play, I talked Uncle Tony into taking me to Times Square to visit the largest Toys R Us. I have been bugging my parents to take me every weekend and they tell me to wait until the weather gets warmer. (Not going to happen!!!) I think it was because they were afraid I was going to go crazy in the store and want to buy everything. After visiting Toys R Us, Uncle Tony took me over to the M&M's World. I met Yellow (the Yellow M&M) and I wandered around all three floors and loved everything in the store. The store was amazing. The weather in New York was cold but it was really nice to spend the day with my awesome Uncle Tony. Thanks Uncle Tony for the great day! We'll do it again soon!
