Feb vacation

 

This maybe wasn’t Kristen’s best Airbnb choice as the parking was non existent, the street was a mess with dead mice on the sidewalk and we were surrounded by graffiti- 

 We invited Katherine to come with us - a first for us - as a girlfriend has never been on a trip before…it was part of what made us look for 3 bedrooms in an Airbnb…which wasn’t easy to find at any kind of reasonable rate…part of why we ended up where we ended up :{

 One of the reasons we choose to go to New York for this break was to use our Broadway credits…from 2 years ago when Sheldon was perming and it was shut down due to COVID…

We went to see Harry Potter and it was incredible.  It was a 3hr 30 minute for the show with a fifteen minute intermission…so long, like wow long…but amazing.  The stage work, the special effects, the direction - all made for a memorable experience.  So was the $200 I spent in the theatre for drinks and popcorn…but someone had to pay for the Harry Potter themed carpet…. 

 Dressing up to go to town

 Our first ever forays into the subway system.  We navigated it ok…but we were very happy that Jaden and Alex were guiding us the first night.

 An awesome picture - during the daytime that day it was in the 70s temperature wise and during our 4 hrs in the theatre it dropped down to the 30’s and got windy.  No one was prepared for that except me…which is why Kristen is wearing my coat :)

Graffiti near our Airbnb-for memory sake :)

Kristen and the kids got to do the Ferry during one of the days in New York while I worked from our Airbnb.

 Jaden and Alex - we only saw them for the time at the theatre…but it was a wonderful memory together.
