Central Park, one end of the 2-mile-long park just a few blocks from our hotel.
So .. Maria tends to start conversations and make friends with people wherever we are. Doormen, waiters, trumpet players, and birds who seem to be following her as we stroll through the park.
Yes, it’s possible to get lost in Central Park. We decided to head back, then walked past the same blossoming tree twice, got directions from a friendly local, turned in the opposite direction and followed a main road back to the corner where we’d started. LOL.
We found Cassidy’s Irish Pub on the way back and had a late lunch. My current favorite storefront with 3-D flowers up high:
An early evening glass of excellent red wine + dessert.
I must say: we are having a great time in NYC.
