Training day

Today was a good day. I got into Midtown within 35 minutes on the train - I feel like celebrating! Yesterday it took me nearly an hour and 15 just to get to 59th and Lexington. Then again a lot of trains were out of service on Sunday, but still!

We're learning more shortcuts though which is making life easier; we discovered a shuttle train (to 2 & 3 lines) about half a block from our apartment and tonight we took a 5 minute bus ride over to Atlantic Center, where all the stores are like Target, Old Navy, Marshall's, grocery stores, etc. Next adventure, finding the nearest IKEA!

Now for some pics taken at the Grand Army Plaza (about 5 blocks from our apt) and the lovely and gigantic Prospect Park...
