i found out late yesterday afternoon that i needed to attend a training session in NYC on TUESDAY!  So i am going up monday morning and staying the night so i am good for the tuesday morning 8am start :) 

i am dragging my aunt with me (dragging haha! we are SO excited) and leaving DC via train monday morning.  SO EXCITED!  did i mention i was excited?  like getting paid to have a mini vacation!  LOVE IT! 

so, i know there are a few New Yorkers (past and present!) around here - what should we make sure we see on Monday?  any suggestions for lunch/dinner/shopping?

we are staying in Times Square :)

  • Well - this is really exciting news! Your should definitely do a quick stop at MOMA and try some tasty food in NYC... right around where you are there are a number of great restaurants that do pre theater dinners - you should try one of them!

  • You will be in TImes Square so you are smack in the center of NYC.

    Definitely try and take in a show while in NY. The tckts stand in the middle of TImes Square offers discount prices.

    Go to citysearch.com for restaurants or zagats.com.

    Go to Central Park, Museum of Modern Art.

    Bloomingdales.

    I wish I could meet you but the kiddies are off from school and that would dampen your "freedom".

    Too bad, I will be in the city on Wendesday and we are actually headed into the city now. Taking kids to Museum of Natural history.

    There are so many good restaurants to choose from. Try and eat outside of Times Square and take a taxi downtown to village for dinner.

    DiSalvano in the village is good italian and sometimes you can catch a celeb there.

    Have FUN!!!!!!

  • I would never have guess you excited. I just hope the weather cooperates with you. They are predicting a pretty good snow storm for Sunday here in Chicago and New York usually gets it a day or two later... What happens if you get snowed in?

    Have a great time!!!!!
