A lazy Sunday was called for. We went to brunch at Bar 43 where we sat outside in the sun. I watched the first half of the Eagles game whilst we ate. At the half we were 17-0 down. As food was over I went to Flynns to try & watch the second half. As there was a christening on it was very busy & they were showing the Jets game. I only stayed for one before going to meet Raj at a bar in the Flatiron area of Manhattan. During my movement phase the Eagles had...

I was the last to get up from the group this morning, although I was still ready before Charlotte. We took the 7 train down to Times Square before hailing a cab to the North River Lobster Company. Located next to the circle line ferry this boat heads out onto the Hudson for 30mins every hour & a half. There were 19 of the assembled Penney family for this trip. We sat outside on the top deck in the immense heat. I opted for the Maine Lobster to accompany our C...

The guys then walked for 30mins to the ferry terminal while the girls got a taxi. The best of NYC tour my father & I had done in 2012, but to the others it was new. We paid for the upgrade to the premium area that allowed provided comfortable seating inside & outside the boat. I grabbed ...

I took them on a stroll around Gantry Park after brunch. We rested back at the apartment in the afternoon before setting off to meet Lori at her apartment on Park Avenue. We had wine & cheese until the sunset on her roof. The dinner reservation got delayed numerous times, but we ...

I was feeling the affects from spending too much time in the sun yesterday. With the arrival of the family later in the day, I relaxed in the apartment all morning. Got some washing done & packed up for the apartment switch later in the day. A Mexican burger for lunch, then I headed to Flynns to watch the England game. Where I had five pints but only paid for two with generous folk including Paul around. I met Sen & moved into a much larger apartment do...
