Music to My Ears

The drive to NY was pretty straightforward. Baltimore looks like a really cool town. I wish we time to actually hang out there. Today we began the endless string of toll plazas…Man, $5 to cross a bridge!

We drove through Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. Even got to experience the NJ Turnpike. We stopped at Mama’s to get fried egg and sausage sandwiches that didn’t taste all that bad.

Driving around NY city is a challenge. Alvin kept his cool though with finesse and a slight edge of aggressiveness. We found our hotel and though small, it was very homey. The Radio City Apartments are really like apartments. The have all the amenities of one including a stove, fridge, and utensils. It was in a perfect location, being only 2 blocks from Time Square.

We got dressed and headed to see the Lion King musical on Broadway. That was an awesome show. I have to say that older Nala is quite the hottie and has quite the voice to boot. She was clearly the star of the show. We then explored around Time Square and had some b ad pizza. We finally ended up at ESPN zone and caught part of the NBA playoffs and had a couple of beers. Not feeling fully satisfied with dinner we went and got pizza at Ray’s pizza. Manny and Alvin said it was much better than the other place. Before retiring we caught the rest of The Chronicles of Riddick and fell asleep.
