Back since Monday from my (8/23- 9/2) trip to NYC. 112,828 steps (56 miles) with one day in there being 18,451 steps ….when you go on a tour with Adam Guy, that will happen!! I saw 20 friends…that’s always the very best part!! Saw 9 shows: Once Upon A Mattress, The Outsiders, Empire, Hadestown, Harry Potter/Cursed Child (2x), The Roommate, Suffs, Back To The Future. Spanakopita, waffles, hot dogs, omelets, deeeelicious burgers and fries, funky and fresh salads, empanadas, pastas, cheeseboards, oodles of cupcakes and cookies and chocolates and candy and fantastic pizza and bagels with schmear, so many coffees and teas, some tasty liquor libations, dumplings and Asian food, knishes and matzo ball soup, soft serve and gelato, and lots and lots of water. I travelled to Somerville, NJ for a day and that was wonderful….and of course shopped and walked midtown but Chinatown, Little Italy, the financial district, the flatiron district, Staten Island Ferry, West Village, Chelsea, the upper east side and the upper west side were where I did a lot of new exploring, including visits to lots of parks, 2 museums and at least 3 bookstores I have never visited as well as multiple great restaurants and cafes. Another lovely stay at The Algonquin with Hamlet the handsome cat Be back soon
