NYC!

Joyce’s trip home started at JFK airport, which necessitated a trip for someone to NYC to drop her off. What could have been an obnoxious chore turned into a great mini-vacation as Rosy, Joyce, and I all headed to NYC for a few days. Barney and Lorie also flew out of JFK, but they had a rental and wanted a little more tourist time, so they went down a day before us. We mostly just walked around, saw the sights, ate expensive food (normal food, really, but expensive because it’s NYC), and had a blast! NYC is such a party city. Everything happens late. Dinner at 10pm, of course. The next morning the whole city looks hung over with litter on the street and people heads down and bundled up. Everyone just hanging in there until the sun sets and the party starts again. :)

I posted all of my pictures online.

On the final day I took an Amtrak train home. It was a 7+ hour ride, but so nice and comfortable. It was the first day of a new station opening, so the president of Amtrak was on the train for awhile and a whole bunch of train groupies, which made for some crowding and excitement. Otherwise it was a peaceful journey home, where I was greeted by a very eager family happy to see me.

Life is good.
