After making such a mess of my last trip, Sis and I decided to give New York City a second try.  The year – 2009; the length of the trip – 1 week; the mission objective – do everything!

This was the trip that we planned top to bottom.  We had tickets pre-purchased for a concert and ballgame, we had Broadway and Off-Broadway shows researched, we even bought a NYC Pass.  We researched stores, museums, where to eat, what to see, where to go, everything.

And the best part was that [Spoiler] I did not get injured!

No ambulance trips, no recouperation days, no awful medication! 

Since we’d all ready been to NYC once we knew what to expect, how certain things worked, and all that good stuff.  The city was familiar to us, but there was still so much that we had left to explore.

On this trip we were going to do all the stuff we didn’t get to do last time.  Case in point:

And not only that, we got a second sign! 

Things were definitely looking up!
