Less photos today, spent more time walking around and doing stuff than cataloging it. We hit up the Natural History Museum and Central Park, after riding on several different trains in the wrong direction. Afterward we went to Brooklyn to get lunch (amazing pizza of course), dessert (no wonder people get NY cheesecake shipped to them), and to see “Cedar Rapids”, since we’ve still not got it down South. We wandered around more doing more random touristy things, went to Chinatown for some good eats for dinner, then up to Times Square last minute to catch another show.
Protip: buy tickets last minute. We decided to see Addam’s Family on a whim, and bought tickets about 20 minutes before the show started. After buying tickets, we were able to walk right in, rather than wait in the long line of people who’d purchased in advance. We got fourth row seats for about a third the price of what they would have been if we’d bought online or in advance. That meant maybe 20 feet from the stage, close enough to see all of Nathan Lane’s many facial expressions. He really is a great stage actor, and the entire cast and show was hilarious.
It’s a bit gloomier looking out today, and was raining last night, so we’ll probably spend most of the time indoors. After breakfast we’re either going to hit the Museum of Modern Art, or save it for this evening (Target Free Fridays are good for those of us that forgot our student IDs at home, despite reminding myself a dozen times beforehand.)
