Manhattan 30 May

It’s been 4 months and 2 days since we saw Jo off from Heathrow for the next instalment of her globetrotting adventure. So we just had to come and visit.

As with all journeys, the more boring the better, in our experience. And boy was it dull! Everything went brilliantly well, although having done 3 hours, with still 5 hours to go, we were bored.

Anyway, took less than half an hour to get through immigration – but we were really lucky because it looked as though 2 or 3 flights arrived just after we joined the queue.

And here we are. Borrowed a great flat from one of Jo’s colleagues which is lose to Jo and will be perfect for exploring.

And the main event

Yes – that really is a side dish of sautéed sprouts to accompany the (fantastic) pasta. Yummy!

Written at 8.15 pm, which is 1.15 am UK time and we’re still standing and being astonished by the Trump verdict.
