No Neil Young was not in NY, well at least not while I was there.
I just returned Monday from a fab 6 days of play with 2 of my bff's.
It was Rachel's birthday last Thursday and I had promised to go. Dana was convinced to join me and there we were, in NY.
Best idea in awhile.
I love NY.
Rach and I saw Wicked the first night. It truly was amazing. I have seen a lot of Broadway shows I have loved and this is one that may go to the top of the list, If you have the chance do go.
Thursday was a more lazy catchup and then Rachel , myself, charming husband Gary and her youngest Daniel attended a Yankees game.Hot sunny night and they won the game, I just wish I had thought to take binoculars so I could have looked for famous faces behind the plate.
Friday was into the city to pick Dana up. King tut exhibit, lunch and a visit to Rachel's Guy....Alec the jeweler.
You do not want to know the damage this wrought!!
Later evening was Sushi and drinks in the living room.
I forgot to mention we stayed at the W in times square. We really liked it. Being central had a great advantage, the room was huge by NY standards and you could check your email, get a drink and the staff were great.
The computer is set by the check in desk and the purpose is to do a quick check and go.
The first night we went there was a young woman playing on Facebook and we were, really??
Well the next night I get there and am waiting and waiting while this other woman is using Friend Finder.
I am like come on the intent is not to be on it all night. Next thing I know she is checking porn and escort sights and then starts shopping for "attachments". I finally went to the desk, the poor staff they were Uggg.
They did get the manager and then security. Honestly we were just Really, you think this is appropriate on a public computer where every one can see you. Ahhh New York, gotta love it.
Saturday was as visit to the Statue and Ellis Island.
The evening saw us in the Village, dinner at Lupa and then we met Gary and Rachel at the Comedy cellar.
Sunday we got tickets for Promises Promises, did lunch, shopped a bit, back to the village for dinner and then off to the Glass House for drinks of which I had too many.
Monday morning I was sick as a dog but Gary had opened shop early for us so off we went.
Both Dana and I have PS that are good but Gary is Great. If you can make the trip to Manhattan you will not be disappointed.
Needless to say, yesterday was spent "resting". but I did go and see Neil Young in the evening.
Magnificient and worth the effort.
What an incredible 7 day adventure.
