Day Five in NYC - 9/25

A coolfront came in overnight and we awoke to windy temps in the 60's and it seemed to get cooler as the day progressed. We took the subway up to Columbus Circle at the southwest end of Central Park and strolled through Strawberry Fields and past the boat pond before meeting Courtney for lunch at Josie's on the Upper West Side.











After lunch, Ben and I headed back to Central Park to view the Great Lawn, the Mall, and the old Dairy and also watch some impromptu performances. On our way out we passed a man creating a sand painting on the sidewalk.






When we got home we ventured up to the rooftop garden above our townhouse. There is this fat squirrel that comes down the fire escape every morning and it seems he camps out up on the rooftop as we found him up there sunning himself. Smart fellow!



The wind really chilled me to the bone and now I'm glad we had warm weather all week. I was able to take a Feldenkrais class for free this evening at the Feldenkrais Institute, only a few short blocks from the apartment. A great way to wind down from all the stimulation of the city.
