leaving new yoOOOrk

Well I'm actually still here in the city but I've had that song stuck in my head since I arrived at JFK last week. The wedding and all festivities & activities associated with it were a rousing success and pretty much a wicked good time. More on that later though, as my post wedding visit to NYC is currently fresh in my mind.

Took the train with J&D immediately following the fairwell breakfast in Westport, CT sunday. We parted ways at Grand Central, they were off to St. Kitts for some honeymoon action, and I was greeted by my good pal Joe B, and it was off to take in the Big Apple of which I had never(!) taken a bite out of.

I was pretty wiped from a full plate whilst in CT, so we started with a breather at Joe's swanky loft in Brooklyn. After some brief rainage, we ventured out for some fallafel action near Washington Square Park at the now legendary Mamouns, sipped maté drinks at Teany, and then hit up local record stores of interest - Satellite, Breakbeat Science (which we almost missed because the sign out front said 'store'), and Jammyland. All that walking around made us both parched & famished, so we partook in some mangoberry margs in the St. Marks area, and picked up some slices and a sixer of Brooklyn Lager on the way back to Joe's pad. We needed to rest up for our big day today, which isn't over yet...
