For a Life Less Ordinary.
Hello! As I write I’m in JFK Airport, waiting for my flight home. No delays, always a plus. Flight time is only 6 hours too, which is shorter than I thought. Can’t complain. I just had a Sam Adams…for $10! What a rip off.
Today we went to the Central Park a for breakfast, then took in some sights around there. Didn’t see the friends building though. Checked out the Apple flagship store on 5th Avenue (on the corner of 53rd street if I remember right). Even if you don’t like computers, it’s worth a look just for the experience. It’s a big glass cube at the top, then you walk down some spiral stairs and then you can play with all the toys, it’s huge. If nothing else; it’s a chance to check emails, etc, as there is free internet on most of the machines. Free WiFi too.
Exceptionally cold. Today, with windchill, we endured temperatures as low as -2 degrees Fahrenheit. That’s -19 degrees Celcius! Madness. But still, today was no day to be indoors.
Woke up this morning to a fantastic view of the sunrise over Lake George & the Adirondacks. Quickly stuffed everything into our bags and then got back on the road. We stopped at a deli nearby for breakfast. The standard coffee and bagels….with cheese, obviously.
The drive to New York City was good, again plenty to see on the way. We needed to drop the hire car off at JFK airport. The views over the bridges of the NYC skyline were very impressive – I believe it was the George Washington and Bronx Whitestone bridges, although apparently the GPS took us a different way to Google maps, so I may be mistaken as some of the signs were confusing…
