Wednesday began at noon when we left the hotel (we had to get caught up on our sleep). We headed down a street we had never been down before in search of Daniel's Bagels (remember...this is the one Mom and I were headed to on Saturday!). We found it, and it was delicious! Well worth the walk and the wait! Dad got egg salad on a pumpernickel bagel, Mom got tuna salad on an everything bagel, and I got chicken salad on a garlic bagel! We all agreed we would go there again, and we just might have to! :)
Next, we did some strolling and some "light" shopping at Macy's on 34th street! This is the one from Miracle on 34th street, the movie. For an afternoon snack we stopped in at the Wharf for happy hour drinks and $1 tacos! Then, it was off to Memphis, our last Broadway show of the trip. My oh my did we go out with a bang! It was high energy and kept us on the edge of our seats...well, except for the time when they stopped the show for technical difficulties! One of the actors came out on stage to entertain us for a few minutes until they had things figured out! Overall, it was a huge hit with this family: dancing, singing, good tunes! It had us rockin' and rollin' all the way home!
We ended our night at Margarita Murphys, and although no one ordered a margarita we had great appetizers and beer! Our waiter was from Dublin, Ireland so we had a good time talking with him about his perception of America and New York City. He told us his girlfriend from college broke up with him when he moved to NYC (12 years ago...I guess he is still bitter) because she did not like the smell of the peanuts they sell on street (and I can see why).
On a random note, I literally saw/heard more emergency vehicles than I have ever seen/heard in my life. Those poor drivers that have to navigate through NYC rush hour to save some one's life! What a disaster!
