Day 1

Well, you know the saying about the best laid plans.....we thought spending the night in Nashville was a great idea and it was, however, the maximum amount of sleep was three hours.  We arrived at the airport at 4:00 A.M. and check-in went wonderful. The flight was great - faces and moans were priceless.

  Shawn, our guide, met us at the airport and we did a walking tour of the entire city of New York - just kidding, but our feet and bodies feel like it. We did begin the day with eating hot dogs at Gray's Papaya then walked to  Central Park for the short tour with a few features along the way. We toured NBC studios and Rockefeller Center. St. Patrick's Cathedral was absolutely breath-taking.

The pictures will not do it justice and the students were in awe. Fifth Avenue was a hit, especially for the girls who had their pictures taken with a male model. Fao Schwartz was a fun and then the walk back to meet our tour guide and walk Time Square.  We ate supper at Bacco's went to the M&M and the Hershey's stores.  The day ended with an exhausted group riding the subway to our hotel and we hope to be rested and ready to tour again tomorrow.
