Breakin' Away!

February 26, 2016!
London worked out so well that
I decided it was time to try New York!
I certainly never thought I would see this day!

I stayed on the 33rd floor of the Doubletree,
Times Square, as recommended by the Metzgers.

My first dining experience--very New York!

A street vendor hot dog and trimmings!  Yum yum!!
(I actually went down and got a second hot dog!)

My day had begun at 3:00 A.M., 
so I took advantage of this for a little nappie poo...

 until it was time to get ready to go to
the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre to see
Finding Neverland.

The theatres are so beautiful and elegant!

I loved Finding Neverland.

And it was right across the street from my hotel.

Dining experience #2...from the hotel gift shop.

Well, you see, it was late, and I was tired!

Night, night, lovely New York!

My plan was to ride the red double deck bus around.
I discovered that I had already seen all the
spots on the tour and that it was pretty cold.
So I decided to have lunch at the hotel--
at Ginger's (as in Rogers)

I really think this sign could do with some glamorizing!!!
Maybe a few exclamation marks!!!
But it was early, and I was the only one there!

My quesadillas.

Then it was time for An American In Paris,
which was only steps from my hotel.

The Doubletree doorman stepped out and took
this picture for me!

And a fellow theatre goer took this one!

And I took this one.  I had a great seat

for another fabulous show!

Tonight I'm going to have a real New York meal.

On my way in, I walked right by

outside this window where

Bryan and Deanne Hammons

were dining!

I think Bryan almost choked on his dessert!

I knew they were in NY, but they didn't know I was!

It's truly amazing that we saw each other!

 I had a long wait, so I went next door to
 Junior's Bakery.
One is supposed to buy cheesecake there,
but I couldn't get past the lemon coconut cake!

Ahhh.  After dinner dessert and coffee in my room. 

Hey, it's Sunday morning, and look what I see
from my hotel window!
That's the Norwegian Breakaway
waiting to whisk me away from my daily drudgery!
{Oh, I can just hear Jack guffawing!}

Please come back tomorrow!
Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
You're breakin' away, breakin' away.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin'
And we're breakin' away, breakin' away.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, breakin' away, breakin' away.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, breakin' away!

Thanks, Bee Gees, and sorry!
