Living in the West Coast, I don’t get to experience the true 4 seasons unless I travel to other parts of the country. I got to experience a week of winter and snow, and let’s just say that my thin blood was looking forward to going back to […]
The Ducks lost the last 2 games played in Toronto and Montreal. We were hoping that this last game of the road trip would turn out better. The KeyBank Center is located down the street from our hotel, and was within the “free zone” of the local metro […]
When in Buffalo, you should try the famous “Buffalo” wings at the famous Anchor Bar, right? We normally would, but with the weather outside being snowy (and freezing) plus we had a game in a few hours, we decided to try the “next” thing Buffalo was known for… hot […]
We traveled by Plane, then Train.. and now automobile. This part of the trip is not part of the Road Crew. Twenty five fans traveled independently with me by bus to Buffalo to catch the 7:00 game against the Sabres. I hired a 56 passenger bus by Coach Canada, and our […]
The New Jersey Devils’ game wasn’t until 7:00 pm, so we made plans to visit the World Trade Center in the morning, and then have lunch at Fraunces Tavern, a historic place where Washington gave his farewell speech. Our tour time was 9:30 am, so we were at […]
Fraunces Tavern is a national historic landmark, museum, and restaurant in New York City, situated at 54 Pearl Street at the corner of Broad Street, in the Financial District. The location played a prominent role in pre-Revolution, American Revolution and post-Revolution history, serving as a headquarters for George […]
The downside of traveling with a lot of people is trying to transport them to the venue. I decided to hire a bus from Broward’s Transportation to take the group of 29 hockey fans from Newark, NJ to Long Island’s Nassau Coliseum. The bus ride was about an […]

My sister and brother in law ate here when they were in NYC. They raved about the authenticity of the Italian food, we just had to try it. So, for my birthday, we came here for dinner. The place is divided into sections, such as a meat section, […]
After our snack break at Junior’s, we decided to head over to the world famous Macy’s. We made our way from Bryant Park, the New York City library, and up 5th Avenue. Bryant Park NY City Library Empire State Building View of the Empire State Building Macy’s! While […]
It was around 2:30 and I was cold, tired, and hungry. I wanted to have a snack since we were planning on a late dinner. A few of the group members went looking for Build A Bear, while the rest of us went to Juniors Cheesecake located off […]
Friday was our free day to roam New York. Four of our group members had never been to NYC, so we had to do as much touristy stuff as we could in a day. We started off at 9:00 am and took the NJ Transit to Penn Station […]

If the Ducks are on the road during my birthday, chances are I’ll be at the game. Last year we were in Vancouver, and this year its Long Island, NY and Newark, NJ. At first I was going to stay in Manhattan, because there’s more to do there, […]
Our flight back home wasn’t until 6:30 pm, so we had time to kill. In the hotel lobby was a flyer on FDR, saying his Hyde Park home was about 1/2 hour away. It was starting to snow, so we decided to check it out. Initially, I thought […]
My cousin’s wedding wasn’t until 1:00 pm, so we had time to run over to the outlet mall in Woodbury, NY. The outlet mall is located about 45 minutes from the hotel, and no matter what route you took, the state made you pay tolls. Seriously $1.50 here […]
New York City is a place where you can always find something to do. This visit was too short, but we did accomplish a lot. We spent most of our time in Midtown, and got to see – Radio City Music Hall – Rockefeller Center – Times Square […]
