Travelled to New York for King and I open audition

My mom and I travelled to New York to answer the open call audition for "the King and I," despite my agent and manager's discouragement not to go. And because we were only familiar with Newark airport then, that is where we flew to from San Francisco. Learning that La Guardia Airport was the best for our purpose came much later.

We checked in at a hotel near Newark Airport and it was a very nice looking hotel room.
