Our vacation o' vacations started out in New York City. We were unable to get tickets to Wicked when it came here, but fate smiled upon us,
Fate: " Why see it there when you can see it on Broadway for 1/4 of the price?
US: "Good point, we shall see it on Broadway"
Landing at JFK was a lot of fun , in fact we prayed that it would be the most "fun" we would have on the trip(alas it was not, stay tuned). For some reason JFK thinks it is a good idea to land planes not by a gate, but out on the tarmac and bring people movers to take you to a gate. We were one of the few lucky ones that got a people mover sans stairs.
We got to our hotel with enough time to freshen up and head off to find something to eat before the show. There is a loverly place called Natsumi right across the street from the Gershwin Theater. We ordered the managers special, a plate as big as the table full of sushi, we highly recommend it.
Now we didn't know a lot about Wicked, we just knew it was the story of the Wicked Witch. We laughed so hard at some points that we are going to have to go see it again so we can hear the things we missed.
