This was it, the final last day in New York. I went for a run before the incredible heat and humidity hit, or at least before it got worse. I ran through Riverside Park, past the field where I've done Tae Kwon Do, and to the beautiful garden that I've loved seeing so many times in the morning
And went home and again, packing, packing, cleaning, organizing and packing. And then we decided to go to Andrew's favorite restaurant, Cafe China, via a long walk through Morningside and Central Parks. From 118th on the Upper West Side, to 37th East of Fifth Avenue. We saw hot birds panting, people lying in the shade and in the sun, every living thing was as quiet and still as possible, save for a few children that hadn't yet learned to be miserable when it's so hot.
We exited Central Park and walked along Fifth Avenue, seeing all the window displays, and soaking in the gusts of air conditioning from opened doors as we walked by.
And then finally Cafe China, for a nice lunch. We walked over to Times Square to catch MTA home. Various errands here and there, but managed to catch the last light of the sun setting over the Hudson River. Our last sunset in New York.
