Out of bed- Onto the subway- Across town. . . . . .

We packed a lot into this day. We began our day at St. John the Divine Cathedral, one of the largest cathedrals in the world, very peaceful and beautiful. We proceeded to the very unusual Chelsea Hotel, the home to some very famous people over the years - Leonard Cohen, Janis Joplin, Dylan Thomas, Bob Dylan, and Sid Vicious. We spent two hours in Chinatown and Little Italy where we shopped and ate lunch. Later in the afternoon we visited the City of New York Museum. In the evening we ate pizza and saw "In the Heights", a wonderful production with great music, dancing, and very nice looking young men. We got in fairly early tonight - 10:45. We are happily exhausted.

I forgot to mention that last night at the theater Phil Donahue sat right in front of us. The girls did not have a clue who he was, but those of us over 40 enjoyed the celebrity sighting.

The group picture was taken at St. John. I am adding a picture of a few of the girls on the subway.
