Day Two - Fran





Day Two was our theatre day. We had a nice breakfast at the Barking Dog in the neighborhood, and got on the cross town bus to head out for Times Square. When we were in line at the half price ticket center, we discovered that in the morning they were only selling tickets for matinees. So we got out of line and headed down to Grand Central to show off the train station to Josue. We had lunch there also and checked out the very cool food market on the street level.





At 2 they were going to start selling tickets for night shows, so a little after two we were back at Times Square to get our tickets. Line wasn't bad, kind of like a busy day at Disneyland trying to get on Indiana Jones (a couple of hours). While in line, we remembered they only took cash. Aunt walked about 10 blocks (each way) to find a Citibank to get us cash while we waited in Line. Leslie also discovered that there was a marquee that showed what tickets were on sale. We were very disappointed that our first 3-4 choices were not on sale here but we did decide on Guys and Dolls and were very happy with the show. We went by the theatre to check it out and got to see some of the actors leaving from the matinee show and got pictures.



For dinner Aunt treated us to the Cafe Nicole at the Novotel. The view of Times Square from our table is shown above. Fun restaurant with good food. After dinner we walked back to the theatre and really enjoyed the show. Our tickets were fantastic 6th row mezzanine and we were had aisle seats so we all had lots of nice leg room.


Hey Jenn, we went to the ROXY for dessert after the show. Got back to the apts about 12:30 am and went to bed to try to get some rest for Day Three. Day Three is Statue of Liberty day!

Blog at cha tomorrow!
