Arrival and Friday in New Yok City

On Thursday, we flew to New York. The clouds cleared off over Pennsylvania, so that was cool. I was a little surprised to not realize we had passed over New Jersey until we saw the ocean. It was sunny, and we flew over Manhattan, and got a nice view before we circled all the way around, and landed at LaGaurdia. I was a little surprised to see that the airport was even smaller than Mitchell Field in Milwaukee, but probably saw three times the traffic. It was old and small and crowded. But we found our limousine, and got a quick ride to our bed and breakfast in Brooklyn.


It was a nice place in a nice neighborhood. I recommend it. The owner met with us when we arrived, and sat down with some maps and showed us where we were, and gave us a subway map.

We got hold of Mike and met him on the far side of Prospect Park. We walked a ways in Park Slope, and had dinner at an affordable but very good Italian place, Bar Toto.


Afterwards, Mike walked us to the subway station, and helped us figure out how to buy tickets.
