mark, marisa and john's amazing [nyc] race

A group of friends gathered on Saturday for some friendly competition (bragging rights and $250 in cash at stake to win a zany race)... The guests turned out to be the entertainment (and food delivery service, it seems). My team was only seven minutes behind the winners (which sucks 'cuz I brought in a ringer and could've used the dough during Sunday's shopping trip to the Woodbury Common outlets...). The last team showed up over half an hour after us. Sorry, Suzy-- no commission for you!!!

According to the bday peeps (our hosts): "It's the Amazing Race meets favorite NYC scenes from movies and TV shows!"
