Spring Break in NYC

Over Spring Break we spent a week couchsurfing with a doctor in the Upper East Side of NYC. It was a wonderful trip and it really gave Ben and me a sense of the city. It's hard to explain how a place that large can feel homey, but it did to us. Our latest plan is to move there after law school. (Realizing that something could change in the next six years before we get to that point.) Here we are in the MTA, map in hand. (It was a familiar pose for us.) Tracie, our great friend who was on the trip with us, took the photo. Highlights of the trip for me were the Museum of Modern Art and a different non-chain restaurant every meal. Ben got to see a photo exhibit from his hero James Nachtwey and visit the International Center for Photography. We also got to see my cousin, Alan Netherton who is a puppeteer living in Brooklyn, and my old family friend David Garber. It's always more fun to see a city through the eyes of someone who lives there.
