Doug and Carrie

I am now back from my trip to New York and I am ready to settle in to our new apartment. Looking back on my photos, I realized that I did not really take any photos of my time in New York. I think I was just too busy to remember my camera. I did stay only a block away from the Ziegfield Theatre. While there, Baby Mama and Made of Honor premiered. As everyone asks who I have told this to, no, I did not see McDreamy… and I’m not quite sure who that is even…

I did see Gordon Ramsey in the lobby of my hotel though. I stayed at the London, which is the hotel that is home to his restaurant. It is all the rage right now. I could never get reservations there, unless I wanted to eat at midnight, so I had to settle for a seat barside– where I did enjoy myself and nursed at $13.00 Cape Cod one evening while people watching.

Today Doug and I went to Ybor City which, for those Kansas Citians who read this, is like Westport. One thing that I am still not used to here is the frequency and just sheer volume of strip clubs, I’m sorry, gentlemen’s clubs here. I guess growing up and living in the Midwest Bible Belt got me accustomed to certain things and seeing a strip club on every corner was not one of them. They all look very cheesy though, just like the strip clubs you’d find in Lawrence (you know the ones on the outskirts of town by Tee Pee Junction).

I will post pictures soon of the apartment and of things around town.
