Chopper Ride and Spring in NYC


Today Tracy and I went for a chopper ride over Manhattan. I was very lucky to get this for Christmas from her and we finally got our act together to go a for a ride. It was really cool. We took off from out in the stick in New Jersey and headed north over Stanton Island and up the Hudson. The views were incredible. Tracy nearly had a heart attack when I almost lost the camera out the "air conditioning" vent. I got a bit carried away trying to get a photo and the camera got sucked out of the chopper. Luckily I had the wrist strap on so all was ok.....just.





Can you see our unit? It's there in the middle.



I have also put some random pics up from spring in NYC. The weather is getting warmer by the day. Today was a significant occasion as it's the first day I wore shorts and flip flops. It's pretty cool walking round with all the trees out in bloom and the tulips and daffodils sprouting out. This time last year I was cruising round France so I missed most of the best part of Spring.






And now a little Dash-date. He had a little operation (a.k.a the chop) last week so has been so has been a little worse for wear but he's well on his way to recovery. I had to visit the vet on Saturday to get a cone upgrade as the other one was not stopping him. I thought those things were only for dogs on the Simpsons.

And finally I was walking through the West Village this afternoon and came across this coffee place. Thought it was well worth a pic and the coffee was good stuff as well. Potential franchise opportunity Buster 1.
