We love New York City, but hadn't visited since 2009 and so jumped at the chance to go on a Broadway tour with the South Coast Rep, a theater group in Orange County. The tour provided tickets to four Tony-nominated plays—War Paint, about the rivalry between cosmetics mavens Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden, Oslo, about the short-lived Palestinian peace accords negotiated in the early 1990s in Norway, Noel Coward's Present Laughter, and Hello, Dolly! starring Bette Midler—plus we saw A Doll's House, Pt. 2 on our own. We also visited the Rockefeller family estate Kykuit, the 9/11 memorial and museum, mid-town Manhattan, and the NY Transit Museum—all of which you can read about in separate posts below.
We rode the subway, saw friends, ate lots of good food, and walked our feet off. It was a wonderful, and much needed, vacation!
Relatively cheap breakfast at the deli across the street from our hotel
New York cheesecake at 11PM—we're on vacation!!
Dirty water dog on 43rd & 8Th Ave. I prefered
Much finer dining at Mario Batali's Eataly at Four World Trade Center
Trying to decide what to eat at Eataly
