The city fun continued with SR flying in from Denver for the last week of the adventure, during which we stayed downtown near the World Trade Center. We saw a taping of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, which was so much fun and completely fascinating. The guest that day, Zephyr Teachall, was very inspiring. But I have to admit we felt incredulous and a little let-down when it turned out the guest the NEXT DAY was Bill Clinton. Sheesh!
We also went to a story slam for The Moth at a nonprofit bookstore in SoHo...
...and while SR took in a Yankee's game, I ventured back down to Brooklyn to see Iron & Wine, one of my favorites, in concert--along with Stephen Merritt and Devandra Banhart. What a show.
The rest of the time we kind of wandered...spent an afternoon walking the length of Central Park...oh, and we tried "floating" at a day spa near Union Square! If you've never tried it, look it up; it was a great experience that I would love to repeat.
What I also love? This city.
