Awesome! When in October are you coming? If the weather is good, may I suggest a lovely walk through Battery Park City? I love to go for a walk along the paths during lunch If you start at Vesey Street, go through "The Real World" area with the cute sculptures, and go down past the WFC and Winter Garden, and end in Battery Park by the Statue of Liberty? Also, if you go over by Lincoln Center stop in the Rubenstein Atrium to see what discounted tickets they may have for Lincoln Center. I am rather partial to the NYC Ballet

Just 3 more to arrive

I will be up there the 2nd weekend in October. It is a quick weekend trip to celebrate my neice's 16th birthday - we plan to be super-tourists! I have tickets to a play and reservations for the 9/11 memorial.
Would love to walk through that area, but I doubt we will have time - you should see K's list of places we HAVE to see!

I thought so, but I didn't want to assume anything.

Can84, and others along the east coast -- we will be thinking of you with Irene heading for a visit. Stay safe!

Thank you! There's still a lot of time for it to turn out to sea. At least that's what I keep hoping for

Hope we all make it through unscathed!

I've been loving reading about everyone's packages and items. Great hunting all.

It's Friday evening here. I won't be expecting a package till next week as the mail does not get delivered at the weekends at all.

To all the East Coast Dis-sers, keep safe and be prepared! (Have passport, can travel!)

 

[bobbiwoz]

Mom, her caregiver Barbara, and DSis are in Cape May NJ and are prepared to evacuate inland. The tourists left as of yesterday and many of the neighbors have plans to leave today. Authorities will be preventing people from coming into Cape May starting Saturday morning, they will have all parkway lanes going north out of town.

A DF's sister was supposed to get married on the beach in Cape May on Saturday. How about that for a story that will last?! Let's hope it means good luck for a long and happy marriage!

I hope everyone stays safe and gets out safely.

I hope that the soon-to-be married couple will be telling this story with fond memories in many years to come!
