    Blessings on Laura and You, my Friend, united yet equal.

    I'm sure you'll find Wi-Fi alloverhellangon in The City. However I advise to NOT stay in touch for your continued marital health...LOL

    Well, it's now too late to advise "run for your life", ( :) ), so instead I'll say congratulations!

    //Phew / sigh - Just back from the "morning after breakfast" which is where I posted from on my tablet earlier today. "T.H.E. Wife, her 2 daughters, and best friend have all gone shopping. Jelani, my now, 'step-grandson' and best buddy is laying down watching, Thomas, (Diesel Special Delivery).
    I have at least 90 minutes of peace and quiet all to myself.

    Between the wine, beer, and everything else I'm not sure how the car signing went but I'm told quite a few were collected.
    Tomorrow morning we leave for NYC via the 'Regional'.
    Plans include:
    Museum of Natural History - 5 minute walk from the hotel.
    Two art museums
    Central Park Zoo - and by extension Central Park
    Visit to Grand Central Station
    Visit to Fith Avenue - (rolls my eyes)
    Walk around Times Square
    Possibly the 9/11 memorial but I know I cannot handle that so we need to work something out.
    That is the short list. I'm sure there will be more.

    Steve, have faith. As I remember the stores, restaurants, and paraphernalia along Fifth Avenue, it was quite an experience for flat-landers and other out-of-towners.

    Do not overlook F.A.O. Schwarz, your step-grandson will love it, as will his step-grandpa.

    No. You are making memories. Years from now, you'll look back and recall it as a memorable event. Not the kind desired, but...

    Travel delays are the pits, especially once you are their captive on board.

    If it makes you feel better, I was visiting family a while back when the air trafic controllers went on strike. Guess what happened the day before my flight?

    That flight I was on,there was this frail looking Indian woman that got on the plane in London.There was discussion before she got on,but on she went.After we hit the runway for takeoff,they changed their mind,and we had to go back to the terminal,where more discussion ensued,and they took her off...Well,NOW,it took so long for everything else that transpired,they somehow decided the food would be bad[Worse??] by the time we were supposed to eat,so we had to wait for new munchies to arrive from catering.By then,[wait for it!!] we needed more fuel,because the plane was idling for like,5 hours..And this was right after we already did a 2 hour flight from Edinburg..Spent almost a day on a plane..Ughhhh...And,oh yeah,I'm a big freakin' guy...

    Travel Horror Stories

    We made it home about 6 hours late.
    Feel free to include your travel horror stores.
    First thing I grabbed was a glass of chilled wine.
    Second was the waiting Chinese dinner her daughters had ordered for us.
    Third third was a seat - about 2 hours later.

    Wedding Train Pics - will be the next post in a few hours.
