It's true!
We went out on the first night and saw Saks of 5th Ave all lit up, the giant Christmas tree, the Rockefeller Centre, the 24 hour Apple store, Tiffany's (a la Breakfast at...), Radio City Music Hall, stores selling Ben and Jerry's ice-cream and more. What's not to like?
The friendliness is overwhelming, everyone helps with everything.
Today we went on the subway to the flat that we will get in a couple of days. It's cute and Suzy, the owner is a doll. Now we are here and have seen the price of hotels the flat looks really cheap.
We have eaten bagels with lox, been for a walk through Central Park, seen people playing basketball late at night in the Fredrick Douglass housing projects concrete basketball courts, drunk bad coffee, been to a gallery and entertained the crowds with stories of cane toads, fires, the banana crisis and more.
Ben is a giant puppy. He talks to everyone, everywhere we go. He even has whole conversations with the people on the street handing out leaflets for cheap lunches in nearby cafes. The man is a party on wheels (actually rollerblades in summer and ice skates in winter.)
So, tommorow we have a party to go to and lots more.
We will slow down a little and try to absorb.
