Glad you had such a great time! MY DD LOVES New York......I'm looking forward to our next trip.

and BTW, don't beat yourself up for sleeping until 0930. Your body was telling you it was 0330 in California and to go back to bed!! ;)

cat, your DD sounds like mine when she caught the NYC bug! She lives there now, a bonafide NY state resident, senior in college and loving it.

Try to go again late spring? Do take time just to walk around and be a part of it (as Frank sang), especially a sidewalk cafe and the Village. So glad you had a nice time.

Loved your report Cat!!!! I think your DD and mine might want to hook up and be roomies :) My dd has caught the bug as well - ugh. I would prefer not but she would really love to live here!

Sounds like a great trip!

For some reason I can't get the hang of NY subways either. I don't know what my issue is!

Sounds like you definitely need to start planning that next trip.

The trip sounds fabulous, but in the spirit of advising "future travelers" , it was NOT a good idea to get into a "sedan" sans meter, permits, etc. Glad you arrived at your destination safely!

Hi

It wasn't yk's report, it was mine. ;)

Glad you had a good time. We lucked out, it was crowded but very manageable. We had the very first tix of the day though.

sf, that is something I will definitely be aware of next time. The guy was super nice but still... Is that something that people do, just drive around and look for people who need taxis? Not in a bad way, but just to make money?

flygirl, you are right, and I am so sorry! It was really crowded, but still a once in a lifetime event! I'm glad we went.

Only half the people that live in NYC were born in NYC. And the converts, like most converts, are the most pious.

Um, ok?
