new york trail...like the oregon trail..

My childhood best friend, AJ, is visiting me for the weekend.high school prom..Well, we've had an adventure like the Oregon trail...To start, he was supposed to be here at 3:35 pm and I was going to get leave work early, sadly his flight was canceled forcing him to wait for 9 hours. During his 9 hour wait period, he hopped from gate to gate trying to get a standby flight until a nice lady told him he had no chance.

You'd think that with having 9 hours to figure out how to pick him up in the zipcar, I'd have planned a route. Actually, I live quite close to LGA, but managed to get lost. In fact, I saw both Yankee Stadium AND the new Citi field. You can view the map above: the green shows you how simple it would have been to get there. I did the pink. It was ridiculous.

We finally got together after 9 hours and had some drinks..maybe too many..and some morning bagels..took a walk in central park..saw some people sledding...and...

(from aj's point of view) -
"kim got into sled, asked girl as she was sitting in sled, if she could use the sled"

(from my point of view) -
asked lovingly if i could take the sled for a spin..they let me..i'm not a good sledder...

we made some new friends..have had lots of smiles...and now we are off to see the rest of the city!
