Hi everyone. As I mentioned our shaft repair went very well. The guys at Tarrytown Marina were great. We left there and headed for the 79th St. Boat Basin,where we picked up a mooring. Our plan is to leave here, and make an outside hop all the way to the Chesapeake, weather permitting of course. One small glitch, we discovered an exhaust fitting was leaking; so we are once again living in the engine room, repairing. We are in fact glad we noticed this now, in place we can get supplies, are safely moored. Still it is annoying. While sailing here [View Full Entry]

So - day 7 already! The difference of staying with a new yorker rather than in a backpackers, is (as i am finding out) a strange feeling of being a 'new' new yorker. Am i making sense? I am certainly following the tourist trail by day, and taking in the sights and sounds as all visitors do. But i am also finding myself doing normal everyday things, like dropping of laundry, watching truly awful morning chat shows, visiting blockbusters, and having to navigate this quite daunting city solo certainly seems to help you cope with it alot quicker - i have [View Full Entry]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6xFFksxnOk This is some nice footage. I like the way they have Times Square just for foot-traffic. With the stage ready to go. I'll go to see Memphis on November 3rd. then stay at the Chelsea Spot Hostel on 30th St. The next morning I'll walk to Penn Station and go to JFK. Flying to Madrid and beyond for 3 weeks. Stay tuned. Memphis is new to Broadway, but it sounds cool... I never had seen a Broadway show until 2009. It's weird. I was born in NY but never lived there. I won a front row seat vis a vis [View Full Entry]

Finally in New york! We have already done so much here. After landing i was whisked away from the airport in a massive black private car, leather interior etc and delivered home with Rachel!! It was very welcome after having spent 2 hours getting through airport security, which for the record i think is utterly ridiculous! The fingerprints and retina things i can understand, but the angry chinese guy who basically iterrogated me was a little unnecessary! Once back, we went for dinner at a very old school pizza parlour called Patsy's. An old dude on the table next to us [View Full Entry]

I am not in Manhattan. If I was I'd probably be watching a Broadway show. I have a SYSTEM for seeing shows on Broadway. I have a Amtrak credit card. I trade the Amtrak points 1 for 1 for Audience Rewards points. I see what they are offering for trades usually some cash too but not much. I get a ticket for a Tuesday evening performance or a Wednesday matinee. (Most shows have two performances on Weds.) Then I get a Greyound bus ticket @ least 3 weeks in advance. Leaves Portland ME @ 10A and arrives right in the Port [View Full Entry]

Fui dormir ontem decidida a acordar cedo. E acordei. Pouco depois das 8h00 já estava na rua, a caminho do Harlem. Queria assistir à famosa missa gospel na Abyssinian Baptist Church, na 138th street. Aos domingos, as missas são às 9h00 e às 11h00. Nos guias sobre Nova York, a recomendação é chegar ao menos uma hora antes. Mas essas dicas são sempre voltadas para quem viaja em períodos de alta estação. Foi o pensei, mas estava redondamente e longamente errada. Assim que me aproximei do endereço, vi uma fila que virava o quarteirão. A prioridade [View Full Entry]
