Day 106: New York City
September 9: Not too sure what my day has in store for me today... but it's beautiful sunshine outside and I'm in a city I love.
Hoping to do some exploring about job opportunities next year, take my damaged suitcase in to get repaired, see some friends, catch a music concert in Central Park in the late afternoon, and at some stage see Beth, my wonderful friend from DC/Maryland who has come up for the weekend to visit me!
Hope everyone is well.
Love Michelle
Okay, here's what I actually did today...
Had a very lazy morning, did some grocery shopping as I'll be at Adam's for the next 10 days, then did some research into jobs for next year. Didn't really get anywhere, and looks like arranging any interviews with contacts for next week will be a hard ask, still I'm perservering.
Then headed downtown to drop off my suitcase for repair. Looks like they are going to try and replace it instead... see what happens.
Was hoping to have time to see Beth this afternoon, but ran out of time.
Met up with Rachel at her work, to then watch her fiance's brother play at Central Park, under the Trefoil Arch - literally. He plays the saxophone and was playing in a trio. Nice music and very relaxing. Good size audience, right near the row boats and lake.
We also passed Jack Nicholson (!!!) as we were walking in Central Park.
Later, Rachel and I went for a walk around the neighbourhood and went to an Italian restaurant for dinner. Very chilled night, beautiful weather too.
