New York Day One
Good fun all round today, but damn busy. Up first thing this morning and can't help but wonder why Jess went to bed on Los Angeles time, but woke up on New York time. Evil, pure evil. Well, we headed off to visit Donna and stopped at The Barking Dog for breakfast - seemed appropriate for all who know Jess. Then found out Donna was rooming in the Burn Ward. I was worried for a moment that something had gone horribly, horribly wrong during surgery, but turns out there's just a bed shortage. Bummer though, no flowers or deliveries, and NO KIDS under 14. No pics of Donna in the hospital either as that would also be evil, pure evil. Anyway, after a visit with DC, off we went to the Natural History Museum. Did the fabu frog exhibit and Jess did some great photo duties, my favorite included here. Then upon exit from the museum, an amazing storm hit NY in a frenzy of thunder and lightening. No cabs to be found (that would stop for us mere tourists) so we 'rode' across Central Park and then walked back to DC's place. Soaked through and through, but a cool storm and not very cold. Jess and I stopped for smoothies along the way. Then we ran, late, to the Wright's for a family dinner of great NY pizza. So darn good and now wishing I'd snuck (sneaked?) some leftovers home to munch while I do late emails. Night night all. Day two coming up.
