Vacay Journal #2: 3 Musicals in 2 Days!

First off, I linked in a bunch of stuff here. I highly recommend watching the YouTube clips if nothing else. They are entertaining.

WOW! What a ride. We got off the ship on Thursday and got to our hotel called Dream. Friday night was all ready for seeing "Wicked - the Musical" (website). The actresses playing the main characters, I think, OUTDID the originators. It's was WICKED!!!!!!!!

Here is a clip on YouTube from Wicked.

But what to do Thursday -> Saturday? We put our bags away and then looked at our key-cards more closely and we noticed that it was advertising another musical.

The musical that was advertised is called "Promises, Promises" written by Neil Simon, musical by Burt Bacharach, and lyrics by Hal David. It has its stars Sean Hayes (formerly Jack of Will & Grace), Kristin Chenoweth (aka Rosetta on Tinkerbell and the original Glinda in Wicked - the Musical). OK, we were hooked! Rightfully so. Matinée it is. Oh yeah, is in it too. Yes, heir to part of the Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) fortune.

Here is a clip on YouTube from Promises, Promises.

We went to the concierge to find out the scoop about the keycard "go-to-see". He said oh yeah, go (which as you can see, we did) and he also suggested "The Addams Family" starring BeBe Neuwirth (aka Lilith on Frazier) and Nathan Lane (voice of Timone on Lion Kind and Tony winner for The Producers).

Here is a clip on YouTube from The Addams Family.

Off we went to get tix for both shows on Saturday. Matinee and Evening performances. We had to leave Sunday. Boy, talk about a jam packed weekend.

ALL SHOWS WERE AMAZING!!!!! All 3 shows were so completely different. Would recommend any and all but for different reasons. Talk to me, I'll "digress" on the subject.

Vacay Journal #1 - M&M's & Portraits

These will be out of order but photos are being processed in a different order. We actually had 2 cameras once we got to NYC. We bought a little point-and-shoot variety. So far, I haven't got those pics on my laptop. They are on the Mac but 2 crucial shots are on the hard drive of the mini and we can't figure out how to get them copied.

In any event, here are the first pics of M&M's World.

I've also included some of the portraits that were taken on the cruise ship. You know the portrait stuff. They were fun.

MANY MANY MANY MANY MANY MANY MANY MANY thanks to our parents for being vacations for lil'A while we were away, and Steve for keeping Packers happy. Love the tower of kitty power in the sink we found at 3 in the morning.
