“Young cat, if you keep your eyes open enough, oh, the stuff you would learn. The most wonderful stuff.” - Dr. Seuss

Mabuhay from Manila!

Highlights of our US trip, in no particular order:
(click on the links to see corresponding images from our album)

* Bringing Arn to every single memorable spot I went to during my NY sojourn 7 years ago.
* Seeing and bonding with our titos, titas and cousins in NY and San Diego.
* Watching Avenue Q, Lennon the Musical, and I Love You You’re Perfect Now Change (take 2 for me!) on Broadway.
* For Arn, seeing the actual props and costumes used in 2001: A Space Odyssey and Bladerunner at the Museum of the Moving Image.
* Stimulating our brains with extra-sensory imagery at PS1-MoMA in Queens.
* Chowing down Gray’s Papaya dogs almost every other day with Arn (and once with Marbs!) in Manhattan.
* Spotting a mint-condition Gemma Bovery hardcover at Strand (and thus, paying only half its retail price).
* Visiting the new architecturally-brilliant MoMA building.
* Experiencing Niagara Falls up close.
* Seeing a Shakespeare play for free, al fresco.
* Having what Sally ate with Harry.
* Tilting our heads to get a good look at President Abe.
* Getting goosebumps upon seeing the first airplane in history at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum.
* Finally having a starstruck moment… sort of.
