Ok so here is a quick recap of New York.
Wednesday left home 8.30am drove to shannon got plane out at 315. arrived in New York 345 (local time). got cab into the city, checked in at the hotel and then went for dinner after that went bak to hotel and went to bed at around 830. the next morning we got up around 7 and walked to central park, i went ice-skating there for a couple of hours and then we went to the disney store, fao schwarz and nbc studios and then to the rockerfeller (sp?) centre and had lunch. then we walked back into times square picking up a few beanies in american greetings along the way (well maybe more than just a few). we went to toys r'us to get stuff for laura and sarah (cousins) and then went back with everything to the hotel. after that we walked the short distance to the manhattan theatre club aka the biltmore theatre and collected our tickets from the box office. we crossed the road where we ran into cynthia nixon with an unidentifiable male. she was wearing navy leggings and a beige jacket (bad dress sense). we went bak to the hotel and i got ready for dinner and the show.
it was really really good there were a lot of judging amy moments and tyne daly was amazing and her daughter (katherine dora brown) who played zola knox on judging amy was in the audience too so it was kinda cool though she was around the 9th row and i was 3rd so it wasnt that easy to see her. after the show i got my autographed playbill and went to wait by the stage door katherine D.B went in past security then james gallagher jr (one of main leads) came out walked past everyone and left. then after a while the security guard said tyne was on her way out. she walked out past everyone accompanied by 2 guys and walked off down the street but then we totally ambushed her said i had travelled all the way from ireland just to see her. she said ''oh ireland i see''. i asked her for a photo she said ''sure''.
i was standing next to her when she beckoned for dad to come over into the pic. he stood next to me but she said he shud stand in the middle to have a ''girl on either side''. then after the pics she asked my name...we talked for a little. she said ''what great kicks (shoes) you have''. i asked her to sign my other playbill and window cards. she did saying''i had signing these things i always sign over my face''. then after that she shook my hand (shes got a great handshake) thanked me turned to a girl autogrpahed her playbill (with my pen) took a quick pic . turned gave me bak my pen thanked me and turned and walked down the street with the two guys. so that was my meeting tyne daly experience she is the most amazing person ever she is a billion times better in real life and thats saying something considering who she was and i have all my autographed playbills, window cards, photos and a video recording of the whole thing to remember her by. it was definately the highlight of my trip. so good that i forgot bout john slattery and cynthia nixon and just went bak to the hotel.
on friday we got up around 7 again and walked to B&H electrical store, then went clothes shopping and shoe shopping. which of course was fun.
in the afternoon we headed to the cbs studios which was also a lot of fun. then we came bak into times square again and collected our tickets for tarzan. we went bak to hotel got ready for the show went for dinner and then went to the lambe theatre to get tickets for moscow cats.
then we went to the theatre to see tarzan. it was really good considering it was only the 4th public performance. of course there were a few things went wrong but overall it was good and all the new songs were really good. after the show we decided not to wait for autographs and so headed bak to the hotel and then to bed.
on saturday morning got up a lil later around 730 packed up all our stuff and checked out of the hotel. we had a final look around times square and went to madame tusauds (sp?) which was pretty cool except for the bit where we had to go through a scene from ''house of wax'' iv never screamed such much in my entire life and there is no way im going to go to see that when it comes out this summer. after that we went for lunch and after to moscow cats which was really good and im still amazed at how they got real cats to do the things they did. after the show we headed bak to the hotel and got a cab to the airport. we got there around 415 and then got our flight at 9. we arrived into shannon at 915 this morning (sunday) and drove home, got bak at around 12 and while i should have gone to bed i decided to stay up...and now am really tired.
il fill in the gaps later but that was pretty much the trip.
