It's always nice when it actually works out the way we said it would. Glad you're having a good time!

Ellen - I confess - I was very nervous - but felt SO great - as someone who is very nervous and afraid of a lot of things (flying, etc but refuses to allow it to limit me) I have never lived in a city and have spent very little time in any major city - well - without ya'll I doubt it would have happened. I actually printed this thread out and had it with me.

The funniest part was a friend from Long Island (who grew up there) met me in China Town and I said let's take the subway to Time Square - her response? "I have never taken the subway, I am afraid" LOL I talked HER into it and off we went with our three children in tow

Again - thank you!
