These boots were made for walking
I think that one of the things I love most about New York is how much I walk. Especially this time of year. Once winter hits, it may not be such a nice thing, but until then, I can easily walk 2 or 3 miles--or more--in a day, and it's nothing. Nothing except good exercise and a chance to explore the city, that is.Last night, I was leaving... well, it's a long and slightly convoluted story as to where I was, but the point is, I was at 68th Street and 2nd Avenue at around 8:00. My mom called as I was leaving, and I didn't really want to cut the conversation short to go into the subway and go home, so I decided to walk as far as I got while we were talking, and then catch the subway home from wherever I was. In an hour, I was at 34th Street and 7th Avenue, which I figure was about 3-ish miles. And that's in addition to the walking I did during the day. It's good, and it never feels like it's as long as it really is.
Bonus points: Alexandra has a piano in the house. I haven't lived in a house with a piano in it in... years, really. Not that I have any of my music with me, but I'm sure I can accumulate! :o) Yeah, that'll be my problem in June. I'll have "accumulated" so much that I'll never be able to get it all home!
