Lastnight Friday was Day 10 of our East Coast trip and we arrived by train from Boston to the Newark, New Jersey Penn Station. We got on Path and were with our friends Helen and Kiki in no time enjoying their hospitality over glasses of wine. Helen is Program Chair for Bead Society of Greater New York and hired me to speak to the group in the past.

After visiting this morning the four of us headed to the New York Botanic Garden in the Bronx. On the way home they dropped us off on near brightly lit Times Square where we got TKTS tickets to the 8pm Chicago the Musical in the Ambasador Theater built in 1921—then we were off the have Thai dinner before the show. We used Yelp to find Room Service. Yes, that was the name of the swift and tasty restaurant—Room Service! I had a tasty and effective passion fruit mojito. After dinner we headed to the theater just around the corner. The performance was very entertaining. Afterwards we headed to the 33th at 6th Path station and stopped into Bryant Park on the way to walk around the lawn and pause for a photograph.

Tomorrow will be another adventure to look forward to.
