Ok, so maybe I'll have to give NYC another chance (and more than 7 hours next time). In all seriousness my one visit didn't make me fall in love with the city in the way that I expected to (or in the way that I did with London). Personally I'm still a big fan of Austin and Chicago for US cities. What are your travel plans from NYC? I thought you were going on to Chicago... -Suz <a href="http://www.eurocheapo.com/blog/paris-cheapo-night-out.html#comment-2852" rel="nofollow">Los Angeles Family Hotels</a> Hey LL!

I love it too and I think it is my most fave city in the world (other than the one I'm from and the one I now live in). I so totally agree that people just say 'hi' and 'how you doin'' as you walk on by. Ok, they maybe construction workers hanging off the scaffold above you, but they are always polite and call you 'Ma'am'..I love that! Customer service is always great too. I remember sitting down to my pastrami on rye at Katz Deli and thinking "am I really here in NYC?". Wish I was there now! Thanks for the postcard too! I loved what you wrote about NYC!

I was quite vaklempt (sp) when you came home. I was worried there would be no more travel logues. I've been wanting to visit Chicago sometime, so a post from your home would be great too. I lived in NYC during the 80's in Alphabet City. It's amazing the changes it has gone through. Please send my regards to your Grandmother, she rocks! Glad you are still posting your travels.

I’ve been wanting to visit Chicago sometime, so a post from your home would be great too. I lived in NYC during the 80′s in Alphabet City. It’s amazing the changes it has gone through.

Please send my regards to your Grandmother, she rocks!

At Yom Kippur, even Lisa goes missing for a little while. I'm flattered you missed me. I missed me too. New York is like a constant reincarnation for me. She hits her stride every generation to reflect what the current generation feels and thinks. Right now the city reflects an incredible new vibrance and still pays homage to her forebearers. The Meg Ryan scene in "When Harry Met Sally" still provides remarkably insecure thoughts in men who think they've rung the bell. God Bless Lisa for indicating that the Pastrami there is good enough to induce such a reaction and she wasn't faking! It's possible that New York hasn't changed as much as our globetrotting diva says. Having been everywhere in the world lately, her lenses have been adjusted to see it a different way. Who knows? I'm just seeing the world through her same lenses and enjoying every moment of it. Dearest Brandy,

But yay for the new post! I so miss NYC after reading this, I had been flip flopping between moving to Denver or NYC... Denver won this time around, but it's possible that NYC might happen at some point! Damn, I'm here before Kevin, I'll have to come back tomorrow and check the comments again!
