Flew in to JFK via a redeye last night (May 6th) oh thank you to the creator of ambien...and to the old jay oh bee for extending my medical coverage so I could get a prescription! Slept for 4 hours(ish) and feel ready to take on the apple....okay technically visit a fun city once again after a long overdue absence. =P
Took the shuttle to grand central station, showed mom around...she hadn't been to New York since she was a teenager. Hopped on the subway up to times square...again. Did the quick walk about thing, then onward to battery park to visit friends.
Had a great visit, picked up some sunglasses for $5.00 (thank you New York street vendor!) and yes, somehow I managed to pack my sunglasses case...empty, yup, great move on my part..
Sadly. Missed out on seeing a few friends as I had no cell phone (suspending the US number till I'm in the states again) being "unplugged" is an odd feeling in this day and age...overall, though a fun start to a journey I'm excited to be on.
