Well that leads into some things I have been looking into. Do you know that there are about 100 clubs that I think we need to check out? We get to choose the club by what we want you know ***** cabarets, ***** comedy, ***** singers, ***** dance, ***** piano, it just goes on and on. I guess the real question is what do we want to do there? Alice says as she begins going through her pile of papers.

Well Alice I would like to go to a few jazz clubs that I have some friends at. Kit begins and I dont think they are ***** but you guys are still welcome.

They all start laugh at that. I want to go shopping. Dana declares.

Well I wanted to see Central Park. Shane pipes up.

Great I was looking into some tours, you know we can do some really neat tours you know we can see all these places like the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Ground Zero, Chelsea Piers, Boats, Grants Tomb, I know I just laugh at that one, Broadway, Yankee Stadium, Empire State Building, Chrysler Building, United Nations and well a ton of more places. Alice starts going through her lists of papers.

Wow Alice, I am glad you have all of that info but were only there for a few days. I mean we are going to have fun right? Tina asks.

Oh yeah I just wanted to be prepared. Lets all think about what we want to do and I still have some feelers out and we can get things settled next week. Hows that? Alice finally looks up at everyone.

Great they all say in unison after they all looked at each other.

The girls all finished their coffees and agreed that they need more planning for the trip. As they were leaving Dana bumped into Bette.
Hey sorry. Dana apologized immediately.
No worry Dana. Ah .. are you alright? Bette asked realizing that Danas head is somewhere else.
Yeah Im just thinking about my next match. Its nothing, sorry. Dana response as she gets up to walk out.
Bette and Tina both exchange a look and then turn to Alice. Hey Alice, thanks for all the planning today. We will get back to you with what we need to do. Hey is Dana OK? Tina asks Alice.

Oh yeah, you know she will probably play Jessica Turmincoski in her next match and I dont know what that girl does but she sure gets in Danas head. Its something she needs to work out though. Alice confides in as she shakes her head. I have told her a hundred times she is better then that beast but she just wont believe me.

Well maybe I can talk to her. Bette offers.

Would you, I really appreciate the thought but I dont know if it would help. Alice first had hope and then started shaking her head again.

What you doubt my abilities? No really let me talk with her I may be able to help. Bette said with all sincerity.

Alice just loved this new Bette Thanks she said as she walked up to hug Bette.
