I'm Going To NYC

[f4f3]

After posting my last entry about THIS weekend, I realised that I should post about next weekend, just in case anyone wants to meet up with me while I'm in New York (I almost said "hook up". Apparently this could lead to confusion. And unforeseen but probably not hilarious consequences. So I didn't.)

Current plan is to take an early train from Providence on Saturday morning, and a late one back on Sunday night. This gives me from, say 11 on Saturday morning till 7.30 or 9.00 on Sunday in the Big Apple. 

At the moment I have no plans beyond meeting up with anthrokeight when she can get away from her conferrence, which I think is Saturday night. Things I'd like to do include seeing the Frick Collection (which I've never seen) the Met (which I can never see enough of) and The Mysterious Bookshop (who can never take enough of my money). I arrive at Penn Station, and will be hungry like the wolf, so brunch is an option, then gallery hopping in the afternoon, dinner with Ms. Anthro and whomever on Saturday night, Sunday brunch, wandering, shopping, gossip and train. 

If anyone wants to play, get in touch below, and we'll figure something out...

Buses? Never been on bus in NYC :)

I'l go with whatever Kate wants on this - not because I'm incapable of making a decision (well, not just that) but because I live in a big city with lots of different cuisines.

New York City buses are useful when you want to move on more than one axis. The bus I have in mind, the M4, is rather like the knight in chess; it goes up the East Side and then crosses over 110th Street to the West Side, where it continuse uptown. (In urban planning terms, this type of itinerary is known as a "maid's route" because it goes from Harlem to the most expensive part of the Upper East Side.)

So Kate, what's your dining pleasure?

Also, I am thinking that I may not be up to the museum jaunt if my current knee injury does not respond better to the chiropractor tonight. Standing around on marble floors is not very good for it :-(

Boo to bad knees :(

Keep me posted, and maybe we can meet up for afternoon tea before we rendevous with Kate.
