No Gloves Required

Last year, when I was in NYC for all of February, I had to get completely bundled to go outside. This trip, no gloves are required. Sometimes you might want them, but you don't have to have them, and sometimes you don't even want to wear them.

Yesterday when I arrived, the hotel told me there were no rooms available for early check in, but I could use the sauna or the pool if I wanted. I asked if there were couches down by the sauna or the pool. "No" was my answer. Granted, at that point I started eyeing the couches in the lobby. And I just stood there and waited. (I didn't sleep well on the red eye - due to turbulence and stress). I was too tired to figure out anything else to do. The woman helping me had walked away, when she came back, she had a room for me. They had upgraded me to a suite so that they could give me a room right away.

According the weatherpeople, we were supposed to have snow flurries today. We got rain. I even saw lightning on my walk home and heard thunder (they were very far apart, so very far away).

I will take some pix this trip and post them on flickr. I have yet to take any. But there are some interesting buildings.
