Radio City

Yesterday Big Daddy, Nanny, Donny and I took the 9:25 train to the city to see the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. Unfortunately, I do not have any photos of our day. Yesterday had to be one of the ugliest days I have ever spent in the city. The rain was unbelievable. We couldn't get a cab so ended up walking to Radio City and with only one umbrella for four people, we were pretty wet. We were able to see Kathy Gifford during the Today Show broadcast and run past the Rockefeller Tree which was lit the night before.

When we arrived at Radio City, I realized we were lucky. We were dry compared to the other ticket holders. Once we were inside, we all forgot we were wet. Donny enjoyed the show and was able to sit still for most of the 90 minutes. He loved the Rockettes and sashayed across the dining room later that night as a tribute.

After the show, we made our way to Broadway and had lunch at a very touristy diner. I picked the spot because I figured by the time we arrived Donny would have plenty of ants in his pants. I was sure he would be entertained long enough for us to eat our meal. The Stardust is a retro 1950's diner with a singing waitstaff . The waitstaff is made up of aspiring Broadway actors and actresses. We were seated right away and the food was pretty good, so all went well. By the time we sat down on the train, we were all ready for a nap! All in all, a very good day despite the rain.
