We left Philly this morning to make the “short” drive to the Bronx. When I say “short,” I mean it’s only 120 miles BUT it’s heading into New York City where the traffic is never good. This 120 mile journey ended up taking almost 6 hours! The traffic leading up to the George Washington Bridge was backed up for an hour. It took an hour to drive 2.5 miles – that’s a traffic jam!
Once we made it over the George Washington Bridge, traffic continued to move slowly until we hit the Major Deegan Expressway (I87). Things picked up and we arrived at our hotel in Yonkers by 7pm. It’s going to be an early morning load in with a 4pm show at the Lehman Center in the Bronx. I’m excited about this show!
