So far, all good. Our hotel is really really good. An excellent location and we each have a suite with living room and br for an unbelievable price. Thank you, Expedia.
It is wonderful to see Anne again. We met her boss Helena, who is actually younger than Anne with her Phd already.'s Anne has known Helena since Bangor, so she is a familiar face in New Haven. Helena is lovely. She is going back to the UK for a couple of weeks so will meet us on Friday for supper before she gets her plane.
We enjoyed New Haven. Anne showed us her lab and told us about her interesting work. The St Patrick's Day parade was different than the usual parades we see (mainly the rodeo parade). No horses. No floats. Mainly band after band - a bagpipe band, then a fife and drum one, then maybe the firemen then a high school one. Between bands there might be a group walking, like the Irish Society or something. But it went on and on, many many bands.
After an hour and a half train ride, walked in Central Park last night and went to a good restaurant that Anne knew of. Today will be the Met Museum and a show tonight. And perhaps a shoe store or two. It's good to have Badgers together again, wish you were all here. We have made Helena an honouray Badger.
