LAST DAY IN NEW YORK

We came to the NY Public Library to find a loo, so thought we may as well "do" a final report as well. We had a sunny day in Nashville and spent most of it at the Belle Meade Plantation (Christine ripping down the curtains and doing a Scarlett). We returned the hire car at the airport without any scratches (a miracle after 1000 miles of driving on the wrong side of the road), boarded the plane to Philadelphia (ndirect flight to NY), then had a two hour delay for the 30 minute connection to NY, which ended up being on a propellored plane! With a booking for a 7.00pm performance at Lincoln Centre, the prospects looked grim, but a WILD drive by a crazy mini-bus driver made it possible to throw our luggage in the hotel and be in our theatre seats by 6.55pm. It was worth it, as "War Horse" was a spectacular production.

Our final day has taken us to the Museum of Modern Art where we naievely thought we could walk in to a major exhibition of de Koonig(?), but the crowds were too great, so we're enjoying walking around before heading off to JFK at midday.

See you all soon.
