We’re in NYC. Let’s call this a belated birthday trip, but as usual that’s just an excuse to shop and eat and do something fun over spring break.
The city is super busy. I’ve said on previous trips that it seemed ‘back to normal’ but even a year back was nothing compared to today.
There’s people everywhere and shops and fooderies are all packed. Our hotel room wasn’t even ready when we arrived – which is very unusual – and the concierge mentioned that they were at capacity last night.
Perhaps this is due to the fact that tomorrow is St Patrick’s Day and there’s a massive parade scheduled which may apparently draw two million spectators?
We had a fun day of visiting our usual shops and eateries and buying absolutely essential items (like blind box toys and model kits) and eating wonderfully bland (for me) or delicious (for KLS) foods 🙂
Tomorrow we’re going to try and see this fabled parade. Will we succeed? Or will we be defeated by the biggest crowds we (probably) have ever seen? Stay tuned…
