Mom left today and it was great having her here. I had a blast with her...and I hope she had fun too. She got to my apartment late Thursday night. Friday morning we went to Serendipity for frozen hot chocolate...it was to die for like always. I think Mom will attest to that too. We got soaked-TWICE that day as it rained everytime we went outside. We also went to Columbia and to Times Square. We got very lucky, because mom won the Wicked lottery. We had first row seats for only $25 each. It was an amazing show and if it ever comes to a town near you...you have to go. Saturday we took a double-decker bus ride around the city. That is the best way to see the city and we learned alot in the process. It was great and so was the weather. We went to all the sights...Battery Park (where you can see the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island...the line was too long to do that), Ground Zero, and Wall Street. We also got back on the bus and end up back in Times Square, where we started. We ate NYC pizza at Vinnie's and had ice cream at Tasty Delite (famous from being on Sex in the City and the Apprentice). That night we went to the Broadway play "The Lights in the Piazza"...not the best, but at least we were able to see the great play Wicked. We ended the night at Cafe Lalo (from the movie You've Got Mail...down the street from my apartment). It was a fun atmosphere, but mom found out that resturants in NYC squeeze as many people as they can in the space they have. Sunday we went to church in Harlem...mom's eyes were open I am sure. It was a little crazy! We also went to the Met and then to Chy's for a delicious dinner. Claire loved mom...I guess she could tell she was a grandma! We went to Chinatown today.
