New York

Leaving Madison - Grandma, Grandpa and Jack!

Arrived last evening in NY.  Great flight and clear skies as we flew in over Manhattan!  Jack was a trooper the whole way. 

We spent the night in a wonderful hotel in Flushing, which is Karen's old neighborhood in Queens.  Looking out our window we can see Shea Stadium and the home the US Tennis Open.  We slept great so we are ready for our flight.  Karen's Mom actually spent the night with her friend in the neighborhood, which worked out great.  She will be coming back here shortly with dim sum treats for Karen.  We had hoped to go out for dim sum this morning, but it was too cold to go walking 3 blocks.

In the meantime, Jack is napping and we are relaxing.  At 11:30 we will leave for JFK, to allow plenty of time for baggage "schlepping" and security lines.
