We were due to arrive in New York in the late evening, so again we were taking no chances and we’d booked ahead. The hostel was on the 24th floor of a hotel on 43rd Street. Finding it was a doodle, once we’d worked out in which direction the street names go up and in which direction they go down. Anywhere else, the view from that high up would be fantastic, but in New York all we could see was the side of the higher building opposite. We loved New Your, despite the fact that everything was almost 50% more expensive than on the West Coast and being constantly asked whether I wanted to buy any drugs started to get extremely annoying. Obviously I had been travelling too long and I looked like someone who took ... read more

1 DE DICIEMBRE DE 1989 HISTORIAS DEL AEROPUERTO Stuttgart, Luxemburgo, Keflavik, Nueva York. Llegué al aeropuerto JFK, pero mi conexión rumbo a Dallas (y de ahí a El Paso) salía del aeropuerto de La Guardia ¡24 horas después! Fui a La Guardia con la idea de meter mis cosas en un locker y darme una vuelta por la ciudad. ¡Pero no había, carajo! Así que tuve que instalarme en una incómoda banca aeroportuaria a cuidar mis cosas y esperar. A unos metros de mí, ocupando un asiento, había una escultura muy rara, de papel y plástico, con forma humana, que me hacía sentirme muy, muy lejos del arte abstracto. Horas después, empezó a moverse. ¡Pensé que alucinaba! Pero no. En un procedimiento perezoso, que debe haber demorado quince minutos, la persona que había bajo todo eso ... read more

North America » United States » New York » Nyack December 12th 1981

My parents took another two year furlough, living in Nyack again from the summer of 1980 to the summer of 1982. They wanted us to come to the States for the Christmas of 1981 and to celebrate my Grandfather Northcott’s 95th birthday. I also had business to attend to in Florida. 12 - 17 December 1981 Saturday through Thursday. We flew from Frankfurt to Miami where my sister Sue and husband Rob picked us up at the airport on Saturday afternoon. On Monday I took care of business that would make me a Florida resident as I had no intention of ever moving back to Virginia, and didn't want to keep paying state taxes to that state. We toured around the West Palm Beach area with them. Our new nephew, Brendan, loved to eat at McDonalds ... read more
