What I did on my end of summer vacation

We did have a wonderful trip. And I particularly enjoyed the way it started off. In the airport I was sitting by a lady who ask me if I was reading a novel on my Kindle. I told her yes, and as a matter of fact it was one I’d written. She seemed amazed and thrilled and wanted to talk. We chatted and I gave her one of my cards. She was headed to NY to see her daughter and told me they would look up my Amazon Author page. Then, before we boarded she wanted a selfie with me. LOL! Of course she had never heard of me in her life, but she made my day anyway.

We grabbed a cab and LJ met us at our hotel. Let’s just say the accommodations were not luxurious. I know I live in my head too much but as I looked at our room, I though of Cassie. I knew for a fact that Cassie would have been disappointed to find the closet in her hotel this small. Judge for yourself.

But it’s not just the size of the room – it was really the view that drew us.

Okay, room and view not much to look at, but I’d gone to see LJ and he was beautiful! We got lunch and then walked the High Line. Later that evening we met up with Colin and we all had dinner. The next day LJ took us to Metropolitan Museum of Art and we toured for quite a while and probably didn’t see half of it. 

By that time I figured that my iWatch had contacted the police to report itself stolen! We averaged walking about 5 ½ miles a day while we were there, while I usually average about a mile a day.

That night we saw the first part of ‘The Cursed Child.’ An excellent play with amazing illusions. I recommend it to everyone. We did touristy things the next day – Madame Trousseau’s, riding on the top of a tour bus, walking down along the Battery Park. And then we saw the second part of the play that night after having dinner with LJ and his friend, the girl who had officiated at his and Colin’s wedding.

The trip was great but getting home was even better. I’ll never be the eager traveler many of my friends are. But we have a bonus – LJ is flying in today to attend a friend’s wedding. And you know I like having all my chicks together. Unfortunately, Mollie is flying to Dallas Saturday. Grrr… Who told them they could grow up and have lives of their own?

Okay, that’s what I’ve been up to, how about you?
