Start spreading the news

We're in New York again! This may not seem like such a big deal in a year but it's still pretty novel for the time being. We're actually renting an apartment across the river in Jersey city for the two weeks that we are here and it's a really nice place. (I'm pretty sure that the tub needs wheels.) It's kind of cool to see the city from across the river. It only takes about 15 min to get from the apartment to 33rd street (mid-town Manhattan, right at the base of the Empire State Building). Kate's excited about the tickets we have to the musical Wicked that we picked up on our trip into the city yesterday. We walked around CentralPpark where we ate lunch and watched a softball game being played by adults on a Monday afternoon in the middle of the park. We also went down through Times Square then through the theater and garment districts on our way to Korea town where we had dinner at our favorite Korean restaurant (favorite because we've been there once before).


But our trip hasn't been all inner city pressure and amphitheater tours, we've spent most of our time here scouting out neighborhoods in Jersey City for a place to live next year and we have liked a lot of what we've seen. The pace is slower in Jersey and it's nice to be able to relax.
