Dan, who was initially going to Youngstown, Ohio for a fight had a last minute change 
of plans that turned into Montreal and NYC. Insert picture of me drooling. I love to travel, he hates it. He asked if I wanted to go along. Yes! So, after Dan left for Montreal Tuesday morning (2/17) I got the kids situated at his sister Michelle's house and we met in New York Wednesday night. That evening we walked down to Times Square which was just south of our hotel. It's a mini Vegas...we felt right at home. Thursday and Friday we wandered the city and went to shows at night. Even with Dan's meetings and endless phone calls, and the bitterly bitter cold, we managed to pack a lot in. I flew back to reality Saturday morning and Dan on Sunday after the Sat night fight at Madison Square Garden (yes I left early, boxing's not really my thing). We had a fantastic time and can't wait to go back. Love, love, loved it!

We wandered through the financial district. Here I am on Wall St. Dan is standing in front of the Brooklyn Bridge.

We rode the subway from the Brooklyn bridge to Grand central station during rush hour. It was utterly fascinating. Grand Central Station...Dan is standing underneath the clock...zoom in.
These are the Broadway shows we saw. The Lion King was o.k., but Wicked (the story of the witches of OZ before Dorothy shows up) was spectacular.
