We went into New York City via the Lincoln tunnel, parked at the Port Authority garage and visited Times Square while waiting for curtain time for The Million Dollar Quartet.  The show was about a one time meeting in December of 1956 of Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins at Sun Records.  Sun Records was founded by Sam Phillips who discovered and gave the first break to each of them.  The show was very entertaining with very good performances by each of the characters.

After the show we had dinner at Carmines Restaurant on 44th Street in the theater district – great food and great prices.  They serve Italian food family style and it is very good – as good as any we have ever had including in Italy.  Desert was a local ice cream shop in New Jersey.

Here are some of the photos from the visit to New York City:
