Welcome to the Big Apple

We made great time all the way to New York until the last few miles when a broken-down bus caused tailbacks just minutes from our hotel.  Still we arrived at 3:00pm, in good time to check-in, get changed, & then travel into the city.
Dinner tonight was just yards from Times Square so we began our New York sightseeing with a group photo & free time in Times Square.

Our first stop in New York City - Times Square!


Dinner at Hurley's Irish Saloon


After dinner we had just a few blocks to walk to our Broadway show, Cinderella, which was playing at the aptly-named Broadway Theatre.
The show, which opened just a few weeks ago & is the first time this Rodgers & Hammerstein's musical has been adapted for the Broadway stage, was a great hit with the students - great music, excellent singing, plenty of humor, & even a few "wow!" moments.  A great start to our trip.
