KYRA & JC AT ELLEN'S STARDUST DINER, NYC Kyra and JC came to the Woods Hole Inn for their first wedding anniversary trip which happened to be their first big trip on their own together! When they returned home to NYC and back to the daily grind they decided to share with us the special place that brought Kyra and JC together - Ellen's Stardust Diner - where they met and fell in love. It is the home of the famous singing staff and their current workplace located right on Broadway in the heart of Times Square. Kyra put on her tee shirt and along with the rest of Ellen's singing staff put on a wonderful rendition of "One Day More". (Check out the awesome video!) For sharing her touching story and photos with us, Kyra and JC win a free weekend stay at the Woods Hole Inn.* With so many amazing entries this year it was hard to choose just one winner, so we decided to pick two more!
