A Weekend in NYC

This past Sunday and Monday I spend in NYC with Adriane for an audition she had. All in all, it was incredibly eventful, even without getting the fake Prada I wanted. Since pictures are said to say a thousand words, I will let you join me on my weekend through photographs. Enjoy!


After landing (late) in NYC, we took a cab to the hotel that overlooked Jack's 99 cent store and these cute roof patios.


Once we were settled in, we walked to get tix for a show. To get those, we went into Time Square.


While we were wandering, we walked past Bryant Park & fashion week!!!!


After finding out where the audition was going to be, we walked back to the hotel where we changed quickly and walked (since it was rush hour and no cabs were going uptown) to Rosie's for dinner.


We went and saw "Legally Blonde:The Musical" !!!

It was lots of fun and very energetic. Here are two pix taken during intermission, since I like how I look in one and Adriane likes how she looks in the other.




After the show, Adriane hailed a cab to take us to the hotel. After earlier failed attempts, I was quite proud of her!


The next day I woke up with a cold, but Adriane was set to do her thang. She had her audition and she was fabulous! But between signing up for a spot and her singing, we saw Tori Spelling and her husband!!! (Unfortuantly, the sign blocks her face, but I PROMISE it is her!)


Since we weren't told we had to check out ASAP when we ordered a car to the airport (once again, rush hour and cabs were a no-no), we only had time to eat at the Dunkin' Donuts around the corner. Yum!


I got to have NY pizza since there was no line for security and we got to our gate on time.


Then we found out the plane was delayed by two hours. The good news? We got to have our cosmos!


Next to the restaurant was this, the closest we got to the "Sex and the City" experience.


The plane was so small we had to walk out onto the runway to get on it. By the way, there was a guy who had too much to drink behind Adriane while she was taking this, which is why I was laughing.


The guy was telling Adriane how he tried (and was unsuccessful) to get a margarita on the plane. He ended up sitting next to us (Adriane:" Oh hell no!"). He was loud and rude and then got escorted off the plane.


While he was walking off, he stumbled hitting his head on one of the overhead compartments.


And then he was gone.


By the time we landed and Bill came to pick us up, we were both tired and I was feeling horrible.

But, we certainly had an interesting time that was anything but boring.

And we both had good night sleeps.

So you stayed overnight at the airport?...just kidding. I'm glad you're home safe and next time you have to take me!
