On Monday, September 14th, after less than 12 hours in the Essex House, we had a somewhat stressful trip to JFK (the midtown tunnel was a bit jammed - go figure). It wasn't until I was watching Extra later that I saw Taylor Swift going into the rear entrance after appearing on the View. I can only guess that we were both there the night of the VMAs, but alas, we did not see her. I did, however, ride in the elevator with Kathy Griffin the week before at The London. You realize this is my life (and work)...
The flight home wasn't too bad and the kids were both great again. Big thumbs up on Virgin America - it was my first trip with them. It was nice to be home.
We changed our plans at the last minute and decided to stay in NYC instead of Greenwich on Sunday, September 13th. Before heading to the hotel, we met up with mom, dad and Jen at Woo Lae Oak in SoHo for dinner. The drive in was a little stressful, but it was good to try it out. Thanks for dinner, JR!
On Friday, September, 11th, we checked out of the hotel and headed up to Jen's place for brunch before heading out of the city to Greenwich for the wedding. Linda brought Phoebe and Oliver. It's been a while since we've been to Jen's "new" place and she seems quite settled in now. Nice tv and patio furniture. I spent half the time trouble-shooting her wireless networking issues. Should have gotten her an Apple Airport instead of the Linksys...
Brunch was superb, by the way (scones, frittata, french toast, bacon and fruit).
On Thursday evening, we met up with a large crew at Kangsuh in Korea-town. Mom, Dad, Jen, Linda, Danny, Joon, Bianca, John and Sueann all joined us. We were also pleased to finally meet Bobby's girlfriend, Anna.
On Thursday afternoon, I picked up Jen and my mom in Midtown, dropped off Jen at an appointment, and headed over to Linda and Danny's new apartment on the upper west side. She was home with baby Phoebe, Oliver and Elliott. Elliott wouldn't allow her to let us in until he was fully dressed as his alter ego, Darth Vader - mask, light saber, and all. Their new place is wonderful.
We tried to rally the troops for dinner on Wednesday, September 9th, but it proved difficult for those with little ones. Theresa and Matt were still up for it so we headed downtown to BLT Prime. It was great to catch up with them and the food was great.
