After a quiet Saturday of visiting a friend and shopping at the mall in Danbury, we were headed to the city on Sunday. I had a fun day planned to celebrate Nelson's return after a busy week in California. Though it was rainy throughout the day, our drive was hassle free. We had brunch with my sister at Marseille, a French bistro in Hell's Kitchen. It was a good brunch spot and we all enjoyed our food. I ordered a vege omelette which was a sensible choice and craved for more carb filled options of waffles or pancakes.
I had tickets to see Good People, a Broadway drama starring Francis McDormand and Tate Donavan. The dialogue and story line were very engaging. Set in the Southie neighborhood of Boston, the drama follows a working class woman's attempt to grab on to some good fortune through her association with a former flame. The juxtaposition of the life of the protagonist who scrapes by every month with that of her former flame who is now a wealthy doctor adds great comic realism to the play. Highly recommended to all theater goers!
In the evening, we walked by the center of Times Square to see the art work on display. 
Nelson was especially excited to show me the sheep exhibit. Then we drove through Park Avenue to see another seasonal display of giant flowers. Even in the rain, this city always keeps us on our toes.
