NYC/Philadelphia

At 6:00 am this morning, Mackenzie boarded a plane bound for NYC.  We had our doubts she would actually make her flight after an unexpected bout with hives last weekend and a severe stomach virus this weekend but she rallied and was almost back to 100% by Sunday night.

Mackenzie and around 200 other members of the Gulf Coast High marching band are headed to NYC for three days of sightseeing before heading to Philadelphia to march in their Thanksgiving Day parade. 

Mackenzie's complete itinerary is:

Monday: Arrive at JFK, Times Square, 911 Memorial, Dinner in Little Italy
Tuesday: 5th Ave, Hard Rock Cafe, Bus Tour of NYC, "Wicked" at the Gershwin Theater
Wednesday: Statue of Liberty, Depart for Philadelphia, Liberty Bell, Dave and Busters
Thursday: Good Morning American,  Dunkin Donuts Philadelphia Parade, Thanksgiving meal at hotel, depart for JFK 

Late breaking news: Mackenzie's band has been asked to perform on Good Morning America. Set your DVR's because the band will be performing a Christmas song between 7:25 and 7:40 am. The Philadelphia Thanksgiving Day parade should be nationally televised after GMA. The GCHS band will be at the beginning of the parade.
