New York City!

Amy has officially gone over the top as the award winner of the Best Wife of the Year award. For my birthday she arranged for some wonderful gifts (a new jotter blotter! new headphones! Running Shorts! and a sweet pack of items for our trip to New York City!)

She found this really cool little pack of cards - 52 adventures in New York City. Well, we won't get to all 52, but I'm excited about trying a few of them!

So we got up this morning at 4:30 am - headed off to the airport and almost missed our flight! Seems like I don't anticipate the little things that sometimes happen --- like the shuttle taking longer than expected. SO, we made the flight (by running across the terminal) but our luggage didn't make it.

So we waited in the airport for several hours and our luggage finally joined us.

We started our New York City day at the South Street Seaport. There's a TKTS location there where you can buy 1/2 price tickets to Broadway shows!

Here's the hint of the year for you Broadway fans (you can buy Friday evening shows AND Saturday afternoon matinées at this location. BUT - the same tickets are NOT released at South Street Seaport and Times Square. So if you're looking for something and they don't have it... you might be able to get it at the Times Square location.

There weren't a whole lot of options available as we were there later than we had planned. But there were tickets available for A Chorus Line! What an awesome show for Amy's first Broadway show!

We had New York Cheesecake for dessert afterwards!

What a sensational birthday!
