New York, NY

So - I figure that I might as well continue this blog for future interesting vacations. Having been back in Toronto for nearly 3 months, I became restless again. I decided to use some of those points I had accumulated over the past few years to fly to NYC and visit some old friends. Wow - the city was so full of life! All these sights and sounds, down to details in the metro system, seemed so eerily familiar from all the movies and TV shows that have bombarded me with this city's imagery for my whole life - but it was far more than that. The city really does never sleep, and I fully intend on going back soon. I even had the chance to brush shoulders with a couple of celebrities - purely by chance! How odd is that? Anyways, my vacation worked, despite not really being relaxing at any time (in fact, probably tiring myself out even more than when I started). Thank you Lisette for putting up with me in cramped conditions for all those days, showing me really what the city has to offer, and thank you Lori for coming into town to meet me for that optional meal between lunch and dinner! I will be back.
