So the last post covered a short period over a long post. I’m going to try to do the opposite this time.
Recovering from the first day, spent whole day in room sleeping and finally woke up and ordered some terrific indian delivery.
This morning (afternoon) when we went out, we visited the Lower East Side/East Village for what pretty much all reviews call the city’s best smoked salmon at Russ and Daughters.
Had tickets for tonight’s show of Evil Dead: The Musical, so we went to Kmart to get some cheap clothes as we had second row center seats in the “splatter zone” If you’re not sure what that means, we’ll tell you later. Read the rest of this entry »
We haven’t seen Jack Bauer yet, but it’s felt like a season-long adventure. There’s just so much to take in all at once. We’ve seen so much culture and diversity in a short period of time, it’s almost overwhelming.
Our flight was delayed an hour because of weather conditions at LGA. Weather conditions between ATL and there weren’t so hot either. Haven’t felt that much turbulence since Brad left Jen for that chick from Hackers. Finally made it to the city, but we have a 30 minute delay before we landed. And we land. And we have another 20 minute delay before the gate is open.
By the time we get our luggage and get out the door, we figure we’ll just hail a cab and head to the hotel. Not quite. There’s a taxi stand so we head toward the light. We then realize the line of people beside us weren’t just waiting. They were waiting for the same taxi stand. Another 30 minutes. We finally deciphered the address for the taxi driver, and were on our way.
The taxi ride wasn’t as exciting as hoped - riding with Adam is more of a thrill ride, honestly. We arrived at the hotel without event, just a little traffic and rain (are you sure we’re not still in Atlanta?) Read the rest of this entry »
Both of us want to thank everyone for their attendance and warm wishes on our happiest day! It really means a lot to us to share such a joyous and life-changing event with those closest to our hearts.
To those of you who were unable to join us, know that we missed you all dearly and that we felt your presence in spirit.
We will post pictures as soon as we can - we hope to be able to keep up while we enjoy our long-needed vacation!
We will be staying at the Fairfield Inn (see Accomodations) which is directly across the street from Anthony’s after the celebration.
We have a photographer arranged, but if anyone has a video camera and wouldn’t mind taking some footage, please bring it as we do not have a videographer and would love to have some of the memories in full color and sound.
Our clothes are here, the flowers are arranged, the menu is planned, the tickets are booked, the hotels are reserved, the music is handled, the decorations picked, the cake designed, the officiant is official, is there anything left?
Everything is coming together beautifully - we thank everyone for all the love and support so far! Your messages mean so much, and we truly look forward to seeing everyone and sharing our celebration with those closest to our lives.
We will miss all of you who are unable to attend, but we understand the short notice makes it difficult to plan. We will have everyone in our thoughts during the celebration, and know that pictures will be posted and mailed ASAP!
