joie de vivre
This evening, we arrived home from a three day trip.
As for what we saw and what we did, I have enough blogging-material to last me weeks. We spent a whole day here. and were dumbstruck by this. In the evening, we went here to thoroughly enjoy this. We visited with family on the way down and had lunch with life-long friends on the way home. We took a detour just to see these, which impressed us with their majesty despite the late afternoon drizzle.
Tonight we will lay our tired heads on familiar beds and awaken to a breakfast that isn't labeled Today's Special. I will possibly dream of pirates climbing mountains. I wouldn't be surprised if an Egyptian Queen pirouettes past me in the style of a Degas painting.
A trip to NYC is a joyous thing.

I read your last sentence wrong the first time through...I read it as "A trip to NYC is a jealous thing" (not joyous thing). Then I laughed - 'cause it's both =)
I look forward to the material becoming blogs. I've missed Nancy's writing!
P.S. I loved the meal! To prove it, I personally consumed all the left-overs in subsequent days-- after sharing the first round with my husband and children, of course (oh, how gracious I am)-- and I'm now weighing 2lbs more than I did last week. I'm not sure whether or not I should be grateful, but my tastebuds say, "Oh yeah!"
Oh! You took my breath away just talking about it! One day, I would love to do such things in NYC with someone who knows. One day, maybe, if God wills it.
