We arrived at the airport, and other than missing Kathleen Rodarte, everything went smoothly. We found out later that you *must* be at the airport one hour before the flight or the flight is closed to you. She was stuck...and we had no way of knowing.
The flight was smooth (mostly) and we cruised and snoozed...all the way across country. We arrived in NY and met Mike Torres, our Bostonian tour guide. He led us to a bus and gave us a little information as we approached Manhattan.
After a brief rest, we met in the lobby and Mike took us to the subway. it was a really beautiful evening and the Crysler building and NYPL beckoned us to return. We took this intricate configuration of subways to Chinatown where we walked the streets, meandering from Chinese restaurants to Italian. Our restaurant was El Mela, 167 Mulberry Street. Low key Italian, tasty food and good company! We were all happy to be here in New York. After we returned to the hotel, Jeff and I wanted to walk a bit more so we headed to Times Square. It was brimming with lights and people...everywhere. We took about an hour walking around the area...and now my feat hurt! I guess I didn't realize how far we walked today.
Tomorrow, a tour of the city and then in the evening, we are going to see Cat on a Hot Tin roof. http://broadway.yahoo.com/cat-on-a-hot-tin-roof/show/94?loc=1

And you said no one was going to read your blog. HA! If sounds like you are set to have a great time. Get used to your feet hurting. It's a BIG city. Smiles. Deb
Looks like MAL will have no room in her suitcase to bring home the knock-off designer stuff that tourists bring home from NYC. msl
I can't believe Mane was true to her word and packed everything in that little carry on bag. Great photo and very funny.
Did Kathleen arrive on a later flight?
Glad you are having such a good time. Wish I was there with you all. Looking forward to hearing about Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.
