As usual we got a late start this morning. We went all the way down the board walk for our breakfast. By the time we got all packed and started it was almost eleven. We went straight up the coast . Nothing of interest happened until we hit Elizabeth, one of the outlying cities of New York. We got there about two thirty. We stopped and looked in the phone book for Dr. Wade, Mrs. Salmon’s brother. We stopped and had a little visit with him before going on. He and his wife are darling. How Pop ever kept his wits about him and drove in New York traffic right up Broadway to the Woodward Hotel is more than I can understand. He seemed to know his way around having only been here once before. Cousin Harry was at the hotel to meet us and took us up to the tenth floor to a most beautiful suite of rooms. He is certainly treating us royally. We spent the time until dinner spreading ourselves out. We ate at a cafeteria across the street. Then we went to Roxys the most famous movie theater in the world. Afterward we wandered up the great white way.
Jane's Notes: The Woodward is now a Best Western. Must have been quite a grand dame in it's day.
