Days 39 to 43 New York

When:  28 August to 1 September

Where:  New York City and Berkshires, Massachusetts. 

Weather:  Very warm, but beginning to cool down a bit.

What:  Touring New York, visiting with friends and family.

Who:  Don, Judy, Mae, Brian, Nicholas, Alyssa, Jonathon, Hildi, and Walter.

Workout: smaller gym in the hotel. 

Walking: lots in New York City. Sunday 20.29, Monday 10.88, Tuesday 7.76 km, Wednesday 3.95 km.

Wine:  Sauvignon Blanc and Albariño.  We introduced Hildi to Albariño and I think she now has a new favourite white wine! 

Whine:  Our holiday is coming to an end.  Brent: its so humid!

Whisky:  None except what we'll declare at the border

Wtf: The Plaza (which is not inexpensive) charged us $19.38 to have a kettle in our room!

Wild: We thought we would be spending time only in New York State.  But we stayed in Massachusetts and had dinner in Connecticut!

Wildlife: squirrels, ducks, turtles, and geese in Central Park. Frogs, raccoons, and a bobcat in Massachusetts.

And of course, Jem!

Water: New York Harbor.  Stunning!

Wonderful: 

Spending time with our friends and family! 

And Walter and Hildi's beautiful home in the Berkshires of western Massachusetts. 

That is the pool house. 

This is the last blog post of our epic holiday.  I enjoyed writing it and hope you've enjoyed following along.

Next holiday is South Africa and Rwanda! Subject to the status of Covid.
