34 hours in NYC, Our Town









Amy & I flew into Laguardia last Saturday for a whirlwind visit to the greatest city in the good ole US of A. I hatched this plan as a winter getaway and to see BJ and Jessica. BJ is in the highly acclaimed production of Our Town at the Barrow Street Theater in The Village, and I wanted to go see it in a bad way. Good, bad way. Here are the highlights:



1. The weather! Sunny and mid-40's!


2. St. John the Divine Cathedral - hard to explain, must go there. Awe-inspiring.


3. Grays Papaya - 2 kraut dogs & papaya drink!


4. 2 hours in the Met - obviously not enough time.


5. Strawberry Fields/The Dakota - first time to visit - need to go back and meditate


6. Matt Umanov's Guitar Shop on Bleeker - vintage shop, amazing


7. Moustache - meditteranean dinner with BJ & Jess - I had a merguez sausage in pita, yummy




9. The Piper's Kilt - Several Red Breast's and some great conversation


10. Indian Road Cafe-Cuban Sandwich for brunch


11. First half of the Colts game with BJ


12. Spending time with Amy, BJ & Jess



We'll be going back in June for BJ's wedding.
