After spending the first day sleeping off jet lag, we were ready to go shopping! And that's after opening more than a hundred ebay parcels that Neil had ordered and had sent to Sandra. PTSD Retail Therapy. On 24 May we headed into NYC for Memorial Day weekend. We met Megan at Yotel, a very trendy spaceage looking hotel near Times Square. The weather was unseasonally cold and wet all weekend. We ate our favourite burgers at 5 Napkin and had an early night. Saturday involved a lot of walking and sightseeing including Chelsea Market and lunch at Spice Market. We met Peggy back at Yotel before heading off to celebrate birthday party no. 2. Sunday started with brunch at Katz's Deli, a new york institution serving Reubens sandwiches and pickles since 1888.We tried shopping at a very busy Century 21, passed by the new Trade centre building and had drinks at the revolving bar at the Marriot on Times Square before taking in Chicago on Broadway and dinner in Hell's Kitchen. We stayed with Terri and Fred and went to a great new Restaurant called Marrow by chef Harold Dieterle. Back in NJ we carried on shopping and stayed over with Bob and Jane. They took us to a park to see the very special cicadas that only emerge from the ground once every 17 years! We spent a wonderful family weekend celebrating Lisa's high school graduation .
