Family Friendly New York Christmas Cruisers Here....

WOW! I guess I'm not the only one that likes that show...still!

I was thinking about the Colbert Report or John Stewart as well, but they are only on weekdays and typically off near Christmas time. Oh well...

Thanx Marina for the list of shows and your help with the cruise planning. We will have 6 children (ages 9 - 17 ... boys and girls). Any of the choices sound great but Mary Poppins, Little Mermaid and The Lion King stand out. I'm a "big" kid and love love love all those movies so I imagine the live shows are even more awesome

Pete, somehow, I just can't picture you sitting through Mary Poppins!

He'll be in the one singing all the songs and we'll have to smack him to stop singing.

Let's go to the pub and get our "pre-crawl" on.

I'd rather sit around, and watch tourists get mugged in the city....

No one is gonna get mugged.

Once a person mugs ya, they would have to crawl through the crowd to get away. I was told it was busy. I had NO idea how busy until I saw it myself.

You're not going to get mugged Pete. Mid-town Manhattan is very, very safe.

pick pocketed is very different from being mugged

And, we'll give our street smarts guide to that before you even arrive. Like keeping your wallet in your front pocket.

yeah there is some street smarts that goes into that and maybe that's a good idea to include in a quick meeting before we all go out the first night. how not to look like a tourist

Don't worry about me....I'm a self-proclaimed expert knife-fighting. Muggers beware...I may be carrying my Ninja Fighting Krambit Folders!

I guess Batman must have cleaned up the streets in Gotham....

and that always reminds me of a movie where someone brings a knife to a gun fight.

guns are cheating....

LOL

Pete, if its safe for me and my 8 year old to travel around Downtown Manhatten alone...I assure you, it's safe for the group too.

So yes, Batman cleaned up Gotham.

Good. It would have been a big job to clean up NYC myself.
Thanx Batman.

Have we made any decisions about which play to see yet?

No, I think we are waiting for a bit longer (since we don't know for sure which plays will be there, and probably don't want to purchase the tickets until we have some confirmations on the cruises).

Yep that!

And can I just give a special thank you to Marina. She gave me a link to a site that saved me 40% off my Mary Poppins tickets for next month.

good for you. broadway is so expensive
