Oh, and we stayed in Weehawken, right across the river. I booked an AirBnB and didn't realize at first but it was only about three blocks from the dueling grounds in Hamilton Park. We walked down there one morning and there were some other tourists gaping at the view and at the monument there. We took their picture, they took ours.

So cool! I love the side trip to the duel site. I've been to Weehauken and have never been there. Might need to drive dd out there when she is home on break. Only 41 days until our Hamilton tickets!!! And, compwalla, you have eyebrows! Hate to mention it but they were the bane of my existence when I was going through chemo. Didn't fall out until around the 2 month mark, maybe even later. And then when they did fall out completely, I had more surgery. Actually, I remember that surgery pre-op well because I had like 5 eyebrow hairs left on each side and they lined up fairly well. I asked the anesthesiologist not to touch them so they wouldn't fall out (they tape your eyes shut in long cases and mine was estimated to take 6 hours). They fell out anyway. LOL.

I'm so glad you had a great time! Thanks for the tip on the duel site. I can't wait to see it when we go in a few months. (But first, to get those elusive tickets!)

They are thinning really bad and I have a sinking feeling they are going to fall out completely before it's all over with. Half my eyelashes are already gone. Ugh.

I was "blessed" with thick eyebrows so I was able to create the illusion that they were there with the straggly few that held on til near the end. I didn't realize my eyelashes were almost gone until the day I had to get my license renewed. They took the picture and I realized my eyes were blending into my face. I looked in the car and realized they were almost gone. I did take the photo with a wig on too. Oh.. and as a word of warning. The hair kept falling out for weeks after I finished. And then, suddenly, it started to grow about 6 weeks later.

I'm so glad it was everything you hoped it would be. I can't wait until 2017 when it's touring and we can see it out here in CA. I actually started reading his biography by Ron Chernow. So interesting.

It sounds like such a fabulous trip. Everything you did looks amazing! I can't wait to see Hamilton when it comes to LA, even though it won't have the original cast. Thanks for sharing your pictures.

Oh Virginia, I'm so so happy you got to see it and meet some of the cast. I was there recently but, of course, did not get to see Hamilton. I did see 6 shows though! LOL
