New York City Pre-Thanksgiving 2008











We just returned last evening from a 2 day trip to NYC. Sherry, Emily and Ashley Leslie took the adventure with Leigh and I. We took the Megabus from Baltimore to Penn Station arriving by 10:15 am. We took the subway a couple stops up to the NYC Hilton on 53rd at the edge of the theatre district. We ate lunch at the Stage Deli and then headed over to the New World Stage to see Rock of Ages featuring Constatine from American Idol. A must see for anyone who lived through the 80's. We headed back to the hotel and got ready for our evening performance of Mamma Mia. I can't get the songs out of my head. We finished up our evening in Times Square at the Bubba Shrimp Company. The next morning we slept till around 9 and headed down to the Chelsea Market to Eleni's and Fat Witch Brownie. We had lunch in a deli for cheap down in the market. We finished up with some gelato from the Italian store and made sure to introduce everyone to Marzipan. After lunch we headed back up town to stroll 5th Avenue, taking in Rockerfeller Center and some of the shops. We were lookers not buyers! We ended up our day in Lindy's with some NY cheesecake (Emily and Ashley) while Sherry and I ate some NY Pizza next store at Ray's. Then back on the doubledecker Megabus with our own private tables in the front of the bus. Overall, this was an A++++ trip. Tired today, though.
