Bagels, Pizza, Hot Dogs and Race Tracks - New York City?

Deal, Roberta. In fact, when it gets up as high as it's been lately ($30 million +), I'd even be willing to split the pot with you. Am I a sport, or what?

I'm already going halfsies with the person who buys the tickets. Not sure she'd want to split, so you'd have to take half of my half. I don't mean to be greedy, but I want my whole half.

So the best and fairest way would be to alternate winning. Good luck, kid.

Booked our plane tickets today

Yippee!


Rooms are booked, flights are booked. We're goin' to New York City!

EhBeth--

Lord willin' and the creek don't rise....

E and I are very keen to spend time with you again.

Brenda Lee's keen to meet everyone she can. She's an excited gal.

I can't speak to the Lord, but I can pray to the creek critters.

Well, my flight schedules change any aodd week .... e.g. some arrival time 5 mins later or earlier :wink:

04 June, 4:05 pm La Guardia

06 June, 10:03 am Penn Station > Boston
08 June, 12:15 pm Penn Station ... back to NY

13 June, 9:50 pm Newark ... back towards Germany

Hertz at La Guardia very efficient wow.

I learned one thing, Walter, which may be of use to you. If you travel on the express bus from La Guardia into NYC (the one I got was a heap btw) it costs about $15. You can however get the local bus which costs about $3 or something but they don't take paper money. You've got to have some change to pay for that bus.

Good morning.

Perhaps one morning we should all have breakfast at a famous New York jewelry store.

ok, I'm beginning to get excited now. And when I get excited something amazing happens. Don't ask me.......I won't tell. Oh goody!

Looks like the Big Apple is gonna be poppin' this summer. Hope the Pan is moved and back in operation by that time!

I do wish I could be there, I've never kicked Frank in the head during breakfast.

Thanks, McTag - similar advice is given in my copy of The Rough Guide to New York

I seem to remember that Miss Golightly had her breakfast from a paper bag while her nose was pressed up against Tiffany's window. At my age, a little more comfort would be preferable.

...We all lose our charms in the end
But square cut or pear shape, these rocks don't lose their shape-

On my last trip, I took the subway to some connection point, and then using a special airport link Metro Card, took a shuttle train to JFK. It works the same way for LaGuardia. Very handy and inexpensive, and easy (as long as you haven't filled an extra suitcase with new shoes ).

Four months from right now! E and Brenda Lee and I will be roaming around in NYC, awaiting Walter's return from Boston.

tralalalala lalalala

The Frying Pan's out of commission? Dang.

E's looking forward to catching up with you, Frankie.

And I promise not to frighten you (in my search for a good chunk of protein) again.

phooey

Gotta gotta gotta check this place out for camera stuff.

The Intrepid is not in that berth anymore...and will not return there for the remainder of this year. Remove Intrepid from your list of photo ops. The Pan is moving 10 - 15 blocks north from where it was...and will almost certainly be open by the end of March.

Party, party, party.

It's not the Intrepid I'm interested in - it's the camera joint - B&H.
