A New Tradition Begins

Yesterday, Black Friday 2010, was the perfect day to see a Broadway show!  All of the tourists and shoppers were downtown while Jackie and I enjoyed the light crowds in midtown.  "Elf, the Musical" was the object of our adventure.  It did not disappoint us, roaring good fun. 

We met at the Marriott Marquis in Times square, for a light lunch, then hustled over to the Hirschfeld Theatre for the 2 p.m. matinee. After the show, we walked over to the Nintendo store for some quick shopping.  Then we hailed a cab over to Fresco by Scotto for great calamari and mac & cheese.  On the way back to Jersey, we laughed; totaled our expenses for the day, and laughed some more.  We plan to do this again on future Black Fridays.  It was a great day and we did our bit to bolster the economy.
