New York with the Family




  The ladies and I were to meet on the Brooklyn Bridge Saturday morning, but Steph and Mary got confused and went to the wrong hotel on Pearl St. to join Janet, Chris and Stacy.  They weren't to blame for the mistake, they went to a hotel with the same name and a street address with only one number different than what they were looking for, but it was at the other end of the street.  The delay just meant I got to go over the bridge twice.
  After spending some time in Brooklyn we took the subway back over to Manhattan and rode the Staten Island Ferry, caught another subway and finally met up with Jim and Erin at Macy's for dinner.  Did you know department stores have fancy restaurants?  I didn't, but Mary knew someone who knew someone who is a manager there and we got treated to some fine food.
  After dinner the rest of them went to see Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden and I returned to Brooklyn.  Jim tried to make up for hassling our waiter so much by leaving the ticket intended for me as a tip.  Hope the guy got off work and went to the show.
