Trip Planning - New York City Style

Day One will be spent in New York City. Sister Marianne and nephew Michael will arrive on Wednesday July 12th and spend the day cruising the city. I will have to check with them to see what kinds of things they want to do - and then I can begin a list and do some research.

I've already began a list for my second day. Sister Kathy and her grandbaby, Emma, brother Robert and his wife, Laura, and their daughter, Jane and sister Eileen will all be in town. Kathy, Eileen and I will do city stuff while the others go to the broadway play, The Beauty and the Beast. After they get out of the show, perhaps we will bring the kids to Central Park and visit the newly renovated kids park Heckscher Park (link to virtual tour of the park). And then maybe visit Times Square and the Disney Store that replaced all the sex shops and strips clubs that were there when I was growing up. Then go over a couple of blocks to the Hell's Kitchen area and eat and check out a few shops.

Then we can head back to the hotel. Kathy, Eileen, Emma and I will be staying at the Marriott Robert, Laura and Jane will be staying down the street at the Waldorf. What gorgeous hotels! I won't want to leave.
