silver_chipmunkGot up this morning and, after breakfast and coffee, went to meet up with mashfanficchick. We met a bit after 11, and headed in to Manhattan to the Museum of the City of New York to see the Germs and the City exhibit. It was fascinating. We took the audio tour, which really added to it.
After we finished that exhibit we did the Activism in New York exhibitm which was also fascinating. Then we browsed the gift shop, and I bought another gift for the Kid fot her birthday.
After that we took the bus downtown and went to the poke restaurant near Union Square, and had dinner. Delicious.
And then, since we were so near, we did the Strand book store. I bought one sort of expensive book and two for 48 cents each. So it was three books for a quite reasonable price.
And then we took a brief time in Whole Foods, while she got food to bring home to her mother.
Then we went home, achy and tired. But it was a very good day.
No Skyping of course but kept in touch with the FWiB through e-mail.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Public health programs.
3. The Museum of the City of New York.
4. Friends to do things with.
5. Activists.
6. Painkillers... my back is killing me.

Have you ever been to DC? I loved the museums there. I wish we had gone at a different time, because it was during 4th of July week and very crowded.
