6:04 am, New Britain, CT: So the kids and I are going into NYC today. They barely remember it. Drive to New Haven, Metro-North to Grand Central.
How suburban!
Lunch at Serendipity, about which I have mixed feelings, but that’s just snobbery. A possible sighting of the every mysterious GrandMargo, e.g., my mother and their grandmother. Certainly a subway ride or two. And maybe a museum.
With no nap and massive stimulus, and a long trip on the backend, this is more of a flyby than an immersion. Still, it keeps the hand in…from the West Coast, you’d believe NYC is dropping back to 70’s levels of chaos.
A good chance to see it live, and what better companions than a five and seven year old??
More to come….
