Trip to Manhattan

Jenn and I took our daughter Neya to see Mary Poppins on Broadway, in New York city.

We made it a hassle-free day trip. We took the Amtrak train to New York city. The trip from E-Town to Penn Station was around 3 and a half hours. Not too bad! Mary Poppins was playing on West 42nd street, just nine blocks down from the train station. We just strolled up 7th Avenue, watched the play, and then visited Times Square.

The play was fantastic, and Time Square was neat. Neya liked the flagship Toys 'R Us store in Time Square.

Here are some pictures from the visit:


I got to see my friend Nate. He lives in Manhattan off 37th street, so we were able to catch up with him for a few minutes, on the way to the play:



The play was a lot of fun. Even though we were in the cheap seats, we had a great view of the stage:




Times Square was neat. I liked the Lego displays in the Toy 'R Us store. They had several mammoth Lego displays. My favorite was the one of the Empire State Building and King Kong. It was over 30 feet tall!
