With Esther in New York City
We had a great trip with our granddaughter, Esther, in New York in celebration of her upcoming 13th birthday. She has just finished performing in a production of a musical "Alice in Wonderland" done by a local performance group in Santa Cruz where she lives. So, part of the trip included seeing "In the Heights" a wonderful Broadway Musical about Latino immigrant experience in NYC . It seems like she really enjoyed it. We also took a Ferry Boat ride around the Statue of Liberty and spent some time on Ellis Island. We got to search their computers for her great grandmother - Dina Rozin - who emigrated back in 1923 from Minsk, Russia. We stayed with some generous friends and spent one night in a hotel just off of Times Square. Esther enjoyed some time in the huge M&Ms store. Times Square at night is quite a sight! We also managed to spend some time at the PRADA store - quite an experience. Naomi looked at a $2500 blouse - before she realized what the price was!
