I realize I'm a bit delinquent on posting. Getting used to a new schedule here has been an adjustment, but we're loving it! Coming soon: pictures of our apartment now that we're fully moved in.
But before that, I have one last post about our time out east that I want to share. Once we found out we were moving back, we realized we had one last bucket list item...visiting Yankees Stadium! Luckily we were able to coordinate one free weekend with a home game, and as usual, visiting New York was an incredible adventure. It was the first time we visited with truly excellent weather, so we felt very lucky as we sat in the bleachers at the game! The game itself was really fun. Mike got tickets right in the midst of the "Bleacher Creatures" and what fabulous fans! Every player and occurrence in the game had a different reaction or tradition they followed. This was especially true for Jeter during his final season. It was noisy and full of heart - exactly like the city!

On the subway ride home, we had a surprise show. Three guys turned on their music and started break dancing in the moving car. Truly talented and entertaining!

Two of our favorite meals were this trip too. A friend recommended Peruvian restaurant Pio Pio for dinner and it did not disappoint! Also we tried a local pizzeria...seriously some of the best pizza I've had. Fantastically appropriate! The best part about these meals is they were two blocks from our space age hotel, Yotel. I think our favorite in the city, it was modern and high efficiency - for example, the bed was recline-able and acted as a couch too!

One of the other fabulous aspects of great weather in New York was being able to wander through Central Park in the sunshine. Every 5 feet there was a different language being spoken, and people enjoying the glorious weather. We're going to miss our quick weekends in this city!
