NYC Weekend
After JA Day, I jumped on a plane and headed over to New York to see my old friend Ksusha T (from my time in Minsk). As usual, due to flight delays, I arrived two hours late but we had some time to chat before catching some Z’s.
Saturday, we managed to squeeze in visits to the Metropolitan Museum, the Body Exhibition (real bodies, plasticized and dissected to present different views of internal organs and other structures), Wall St, the hole where the WTC used to be, South St Seaport, and a few eating and drinking establishments.
Sunday, we went to Battery Park to have a look at the Statue of Liberty from afar and some other features of the area. Then, we checked out the Museum of Natural History, Central Park and a Puerto Rican parade that was going on, Times Sq and Korean Town (which is really just a street).
It was a busy weekend, but it felt great to see Ksusha again after so long and catch each other up on life… and see a little of NYC while doing it.
