After trying to find "reasonable" priced Broadway show tickets mom and I decided to take a gander at the Off Broadway offerings.
We found the show Altar Boyz (http://www.altarboyz.com/). The reviews we've read are glowing and it's been running for 3 years. We bit the bullet and booked tickets for the Saturday matinee when we will be in the city. I'm really looking forward to it, the little snippet I listened to, of the music sounded great! The ticket price was "right-on" too...only $35...much better then the $178 for the Jersey Boys Broadway show! After all, it's not like we've never been to a Broadway show before!
Thanks to a gal my mom works with we found another tour company called Big Onion Walking Tours (http://www.bigonion.com/). They do a variety of walking tours throughout NYC and it appears they are history based. The Saturday we will be in the city there is a Brooklyn Bridge Twillight walking tour scheduled. We decided to give it a try since I've never walked across the Brooklyn Bridge before and there is no requirement to reserve in advance, the price is only $15 for a 2 hour tour...not too bad. So we are putting that on the "agenda" and hopefully we will be able to squeeze it in. I'm glad this tour doesn't require reservations in case we get interested in something else, we have nothing to lose!
And the travel planning continues!
