A brief trip to New York City to celebrate our 41 years together, full of magic; meeting new friends, spending time with darling nieces, seeing Matisse again and again and again, visiting the Met, again and again, snow and cold, Brussels sprouts on every menu, taxis without shock absorbers, champagne, galleries, fun, kind and friendly people, a kaleidoscope of sound, colour, vitality; it was wonderful.

Liz, you have such a way of capturing life's moments so perfectly. These photos are delicious. Thank You!
ReplyDeleteThank you Barbara, as you can tell we loved our trip!
DeleteCongratulations on 40 years together! Of course, part of me reads this post and says "What! You were in NYC and didn't let me know?!?" It would have been lovely to have met you...kinda on my home turf. You've described a day in the city so accurately. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Jennifer, I envy you having NYC as "home turf" , what a great place, we are still in recovery / overload mode. So much to digest.
DeleteSuch milestone to celebrate in the most amazing place!
ReplyDeleteYes, you are describing perfectly the magic of NYC, the backdrop of your super celebration!
Congratulations!!!
Thanks Anna, I love the energy of that city, so different from our regular life, overwhelming and intoxicating, and just so much fun to change pace for a few days.
DeleteMakes me crave N.Y. Love your pictures as always. Best wishes to my favorite couple.
ReplyDeleteThanks Brigite, it was great….make your next vacation NYC, it wasn't relaxing but it sure was fun!
DeleteCongrats Liz and I can't think of a better place to visit than NYC to celebrate! It tells you all about life and living doesn't it? and art, such amazing art...
