a loooooooonng day

today lux and i took a long, long, LOOOOOOOONG walk from our apartment on E. 3rd street all the way down to south street seaport and back up through little italy. south street doesn't seem to be quite as nice as i remembered it being from when we used to go when i was a kid, but we hit three playgrounds on our expedition so we were quite satisfied. altogether it took us about six hours, so i'm pretty ready for ice cream and a movie. and rootbeer. and popcorn. mmmmm....

zoo day

our first week

I've been meaning to write something about our stay in New York so far, but I haven't really been inspired. I wanted to say something about the Why and the How, but I'm pretty much brain-dead at the moment. Maybe it's the remnants of jet lag that haven't quite left me.

Lux is taking this whole move reasonably well despite the massive jet lag. She has started to call the apartment "the new house", a term previously reserved for our new house in Rotterdam. I'm not sure she understands what's going on, but she seems to be okay with it.

We've been trying to speak English together as much as possible. Björn is much better at it than I am; I keep forgetting and slipping back into Dutch. B and L are just not in my English speaking system, so when I'm formulating whatever I'm planning on saying to them in my head it's always in Dutch. I guess I just have to try a little harder.

Anyway, not much else right now, inspiration wise. I'll try again soon. In the meantime, here are some of the pictures I promised. :-p
