We took this one right after we got married.
I know that I knew I was where I needed to be,
but I had no idea just how right he was for me.

Remembering NYC: 2007
Our third NYC trip together, July 2007, was the year we first visited the Shanghai Cafe in Chinatown.
As you can see by Kevin’s perfect expression above, some of the food’s a little hot. 😛
Sure, none of the people who work there speak much English; they only bring you a fork if you ask for it, and they don’t take credit cards, but they have the best chicken fried rice we have ever tasted. Ever.
Some other things we remember about our action-packed 2007 trip:
- We saw Julie Brown‘s one-woman show at Joe’s Pub and got to talk with her afterward!
- We followed a self-guided tour through Greenwich Village that included a number of Bob Dylan’s hangouts.
- We ventured uptown to Harlem to find the place where the Savoy Ballroom used to be. The home of the Lindy Hop, the Savoy was one of Ella Fitzgerald’s usual hangouts in the city. It’s now a park with a monument.
- We saw “Phantom of the Opera” for the second time. 🙂
- We also saw “Spamalot.” I love some Monty Python; Kevin thinks they’re a little too silly, but he enjoyed it because it was a spoof on the Arthurian legend.
Remembering NYC: 2006
As you can see, I was very pregnant by the time our second trip to NYC rolled around. Just two months later, our Atticus was born. 🙂
The picture’s bad, taken with a cell phone, and recaptured by my Droid tonight from a print. (What happened to those files?!)
Here are some things we remember about this trip:
- We were only there two nights, July 26-28, the shortest stay so far.
- We saw “Rent” at the Nederlander Theatre. Awesome production!
- We stayed at the New Yorker, which was nice enough, but way too far away from any subway stops.
- We stopped in St. Bartholomew’s on the way to St. Patrick’s. Remember, I was pregnant and it was late July…hot!! This stop changed our lives … long story (to come)!
