In Which we went shopping and shopping and shopping

Today we slept in till 8. Much needed sleep in. Breakfast was a bagel
from the local deli, I was in heaven. Ingrid not so much. Well fueled
we headed for Macy's. On the subway. On our own (with the help of
hopstop an iPhone app). Then we shopped till we dropped of starvation
and lack of caffeine. For 6 hours.

We finally made it back to the hotel  exhausted and shattered, a good
strong cup of tea and 6 mini muffins later we were raring to go
again  Off to the theater. Now bear in mind it is supposed to be VERY
hot in New York but it isn't. It isn't AT ALL.  and the only 'nice'
clothes we brought with us reflect the hot weather we are supposed to
be having. Tonight is Broadway night and it's raining and cold and I
mean COLD and were going to the theater. BROADWAY theater!! So here we
are decked up to the nines beautiful outfits and shoes and north face
polar fleeces and very unattractive rain jackets. Glamorous in a
strange sort of way.

Thoroughly enjoyed How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying,


was a magnificent show. I was very cross with how people dressed to go to the theater. Jeans even!!! We had four Brooklyn dames with the BEST accents sitting behind us. Am now considering acquiring a Brooklyn accent. After the show had finished we headed towards the subway, unfortunately we came across Junior's Cheesecake, suppposedly the best cheesecake in New York. It was good but mine is better. Then we got sidetracked by the lights - oh the lights!!!


Then we found a shoe shop THEN Ingrid spotted the Disney shop. I found a nice quiet corner but at 11:45 put my foot down (in a Tinkerbell like manner) and said Home or I'll hurt you.




Tomorrow Brooklyn with a Big Apple Greeter.
