Spring Vacation Day 6
Our first order of business was to go the set of Good Morning America. We got up early and walked the few blocks from our hotel to Times Square. A small group had already formed. We found a good spot where we would hopefully get some facetime on national television. The kids ended up in a great shot with Sam Champion and we got to see Jamie Oliver do a cooking spot right out in the square. We headed back to the hotel for breakfast where a guest heard us discussing whether to buy tickets for a tour bus or just walk. He suggested that we save our money and use the subway. He also recommended that we see a Broadway play; he had taken his family to see How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and they thought it was great, the main character was Daniel Radcliff aka Harry Potter. We were interested in going to a play but they were so expensive I had given up on the idea. He told us to try to get rush tickets which were less expensive. Ryan was thrilled with the idea of seeing Harry Potter and didn't really care what the play was about. We went to the box office but they were sold out for that night but we promised Ryan that we would try again the next day. We spent the morning walking around the city; visiting Rockefeller Center, Playing chess in Central Park. We saw David Lettermans studio and Radio City Music Hall and ate New York style pizza. We needed a little break and went to our hotel for a rest. After a much needed nap we ventured out for dinner at a mexican restaurant Steve had heard about. It was quite a walk but fun to experience the city at night. After dinner we found Macy's and walked through the famous store that was in full bloom. During the spring they bring in thousands of flowers; it smells great and is quite a site. We went to bed that night with hopes of getting to the box office for our play early enough for tickets.
