New York City a Day at a Time

Today was spent wandering the city alone with my thoughts and no agenda.  It was a great day! No reservations, no must sees, no boundaries.  I felt free, energized and local!  It was a last minute decision to go.  I was sitting watching the weather and it was going to be a beautiful fall day.  I needed distraction but did not want to be involved with people.  What better place to lose yourself than New York City.

I got off the train and just started to walk in the direction of Central Park.  I did not want to be darting in and out of stores or be cooped up in play when the warmth of the sun was beckoning me.  I felt wonderful.  I donated to homeless people, took lots of photographs for people, soaked up the ambiance and discovered what  may just be the best burger ever!  It was on Columbus Avenue and 77th street.  The Shake Shack!  Since a picture is worth a a thousand words:

While on the train heading home, I thought why not come into the city once a week and find a new place.  While telling my husband this he mentioned I should blog about it. Why not I thought, so my adventure begins.  I am going to venture into New York City at least once a week and discover something.  It may not be great, or completely new, but my experience will be new!  I will be honest.  I will do my best to venture outside my comfort zone from time to time.  I am excited, I love the city and have always wanted to get to know it better.
I hope you find my writings pleasurable and interesting and if you have suggestions to try, just let me know!
Until next week, be happy.
