7:40 PM, 9/27/10Stepping back on American soil has had a real take-the-edge-off-type feeling.
Walking the streets of New York City barely 24 hours after flying in from the Netherlands was relieving. Whereas it has been such a rapid seasonal change in Europe, the sight of everyday New Yorkers strolling around on an Indian Summer-Saturday was surreal. I don’t remember ever describing midtown Manhattan as seeming so laid-back before this Saturday.
I’m in Ithaca again. Came in from Port Authority by bus yesterday evening
This past weekend in the city was eventful enough that the solitude that sitting on my mother’s sofa brings as I am typing this entry has left me with little energy to elaborate.
There is plenty on my mind regarding to events of the past week, in both the Netherlands and NYC.
I’ll get to it when rested.
Right now, I’d just like to get some long-needed pleasure reading done.
Thus is prologue…
