Our first stop was at the Apollo Theater – the beginning of many people’s journey to fame. The amazing guy who gave us the tour, Billy Mitchell, sister just died. Many co-workers tried convincing him to cancel the tour, but he graced us with the glory of the Apollo Theater to get his mind off his newly lost sister. To help him get through this tragic event we gave him fresh lobster from Maine. There were many glorious acts in our very own “Amateur Night” and everyone was a winner. We saw the Wall of Signatures which was where all the performers from the past 50 years signed their names. The signatures ranged from Taylor Swift to Pee Wee Herman. The dressing rooms off the stage were just like the ones in the movies minus the personal things for their character.
On the way to Central Park, the time on the bus was spent singing and dancing in the seats. Central Park had many different kinds of people: a man playing a guitar, a woman with a cat selling bracelets, someone doing henna tattoos, and the self-proclaimed Mayor of Strawberry Fields who knew many facts about John Lennon.
On the way to Katz’s Deli we came across many different places. There was a M&M’s shop entirely dedicated to all products of M&M’s. There are many different advertisements for Spiderman, but outside the M&M’s shop there was a Spiderman wearing a fanny pack! Later on we saw many cartoon mascots including Elmo from Sesame Street and Woody from Toy Story. After a long time we finally found Katz’s Deli. The way you order the food was very confusing, but you finally understood what to do it became a lot easier.
The hotel looked very nice but some of us didn’t really have the chance to experience it because they were so tired!
