"I wanna wake up in a city that never sleeps..."
















New York, New York...
I have spent two fabulous days in the Big Apple with my brother Nate and his darling wife Anna. They have been tremendous hosts and tour guides: we've consumed unparalleled chocolate cheesecake and green tea ice cream, famous soup dumplings at Joe's in Chinatown, Nate's wok masterpieces... We have also explored Inwood and Central Park, reveled in the perfect weather (see photo to the left), boarded the Staten Island ferry and cruised past the Statue of L
iberty at sunset... A great start to my grand adventure!

Tomorrow, I'll be leaving New York and flying to Paris. It will be a day-long journey, and I'm sure to be exhausted when I arrive in the City of Love. However, no nap for me! I'm going to tackle my jet lag like nobody's business.

Here is my favorite photo from my brief stay in New York. Mom and Dad, check out that scenic sailing! Until next time.
