UPDATE ON MY FRIEND WHO WENT TO NYC TODAY....
First, thanks to you all for your concerns re my friend who had planned a lovely 5 day trip to NYC with her 21 yr old daughter to see broadway shows, etc. and was determined to go, regardless of this hurricaine. I was sure she would not be going, with all the plane cancellations, etc.
Today I talked with her husband ( we are all in Jax, FL )who told me that my friend and her daughter HAD FLOWN UP THERE very early this morning.UNBELIEVABLE.
This woman has never been to NYC, they forgot their cell phones in the car, etc. If the broadway shows were cancelled she was “going to get some food and stay in the hotel (Manhatten) and walk around in raincoats”.
I am hoping they will be fine and the worst will be they are very bored.
Please say a little prayer for them.
Maybe its just me being over reacting and they will come back from their ‘adventure” telling me I am a chicken.
They should be OK, but they basically wasted their money by going.
Well, the fact that they made it surprises me but this may be a hidden blessing. They will get a transit shut down and any cab they want. The show will go on. It might be quite a treat.
Wow, I can’t believe they went! And they forgot their cell phones? Eegads! Maybe you could call her husband Sunday or Monday and find out how they’re faring. I’d be curious to know!
I cracked up when Fox showed a shot of Times Square and Sheppie said that the only people who were out and about were tourists who didn’t know what was going on. :)
