Travel – The Big Apple: Day 4C – “The Music Man” & The Triple Threat
Day 4 of the NYC trip, Beth was REALLY looking forward to Thursday night. “The Music Man” at The Winter Garden Theatre on Broadway. Why? Most would think it was to see Hugh Jackman…nope.

An entertainer that is equally and amazinglyContinue reading “Travel – The Big Apple: Day 4C – “The Music Man” & The Triple Threat”
Travel – The Big Apple: Day 4B The 9/11 Museum
It has been my MO to insert factoids into Ron’s Rambling’s that feature destinations or events. We will depart from that MO for this post about the 9/11 museum. This post is all about my thoughts and feelings the tour evoked both during and after our visit.

Day two in NYC. Perhaps our most busy day started the same as day one; sleeping in followed by coffee and a bagel near our hotel. We mentioned in the first post that the food was a little disappointing during the trip. Tuesday morning’s food was the most disappointing. Our day 1 bagel was good,Continue reading “Travel – The Big Apple: Day 2”
Travel – The Big Apple: A 5 Day Bite
Admittedly, there was some apprehension about this trip to New York City. We planned to stay midtown just 2 blocks off Times Square. News stories of violence in the subway, crime on the streets and pandemic related business closures made us uncertain what to expect during our 5 day, 6 night stay in the BigContinue reading “Travel – The Big Apple: A 5 Day Bite”
