Weekend in New York City

Kevin and I just spent the weekend in The Big Apple. As usual, it's a great place to visit, and I still wouldn't want to live there. We saw a very entertaining musical on Saturday, called Curtains. Kim's college roommate was in the show for a couple of years, but unfortunately had just left the show a couple of weeks ago as it is about to close. It stars David Hyde Peirce (Frasier's brother Miles from Cheers) and he was great.

Our primary reason for going was to see Yankee Stadium before is closes at the end of this season. It's an old and somewhat dated stadium, but it was a fun day (Sunday) in spite of a short rain delay. We also had great meals ... one at a vegan reastaurant in Manhattan ... and one at the nation's oldest pizza parlor!! Along with a trip up the Empire State Building, which neither of us had done for many years, we just did the customary long walks and stops in bars or shops along the way. A very nice weekend.

Sounds like fun. We saw David Hyde P. in Spamalot -- he was very good!
