We began by having a light breakfast at Starbucks on the way to Lenscrafters to pick up Marisa's glasses. Following this, we went to Bryant's Park and went ice skating. Marisa did very well and in a few minutes was skating around like a pro. It took me a bit longer to become comfortable, but I still looked like Bambi. After this we walked to Macy's and split up for undisclosed locations. We met up again at about 1:30 and after a few crowded minutes in Macy's took a taxi back to the hotel. It took far too long and we ended up 15 minutes late for our walking tour. The tour began at the New Victory Theater and we walked to Times Square. The photographer had us stand in the middle of the street for one of the pictures. We then took the subway to Central Park and wandered around a bit. Neither of us had ever been in the park and even in winter it was very calming. We then took an express train to the Brooklyn Bridge and walked to the centre to take in the New York skyline. From here we had our pictures taken in front of the Rockerfeller Center christmas tree. After this great tour, we walked back to the hotel and then set out to Broadway for a Chorus Line. After a very nice dinner at Charley-Os we walked to the theatre. We had great seats, six rows back. We thoroughly enjoyed the show.We began by having a light breakfast at Starbucks on the way to Lenscrafters to pick up Marisa's glasses. Following this, we went to Bryant's Park and went ice skating.
