Short Trip to NYC

Sunday July 18, 2010

Malibu, California

Sunny Beach Weather and No Humidity!

I'm so tired because did not sleep well due to the fire at Paradise Cove last night so this entry will be short.  But I had a business trip to New York last week so was able to catch up with my BFFs Nicky and Priscilla and Priscilla's husband Stu.  Also had fab Chinese food with BFF Susan and her husband Ray. I was also able to take my BFF in California's daughter, Amie, out to my favorite restaurant in the world – Union Square Cafe.  On Saturday, spend a few hours with Bob and Rick who I haven't seen in ages.  Both look great are are loving retirement.  I could have spend more time with them but American Airlines screwed up.  So despite short on time, I was able to catch up with my dearest friends but had many more to see but ran out of time.  I miss my East Coast friends dearly but do not miss the hot, humid summers.  It was so sticky! 

I am going to have to plan a vacation to the East Coast with the sole purpose of spending more quality time with my special friends (but not in the summer).

Bob and Rick and their wonderful terrace.  Didn't get a pic of Nicky, Priscilla and Stu – next time.  Same goes for Susan and Ray.
