New York for the most part, with a few days in Boston.
Girlfriend has family there (and on Staten Island). Got any recommendations, humanodon?
For food, there's lots of options but if you like dim sum I would highly suggest Bubor Cha Cha in Chinatown. If your girl has family there, they probably have an itinerary in mind but if you want contemporary art you could always check out the ICA. Additionally, the local listings mag, The Dig (or is it Dig Boston now?) is a pretty decent resource. Link Anyway, I'm pretty full-up for the first half of the week, but if you guys want to get a drink or something, shoot me a pm.
My apologies, humanodon. I never did get around to messaging you for that drink. As it was, the one Boston evening I had free and without commitments I was so exhausted from meeting up with all of the gf's family that I stayed in the hotel and watched Fox News. That drink will have to wait until our next visit in a year or so - or until you come down to Melbourne. Fantastic city, by the way. Loved Trident Books.
Brilliant! Thank you. I'd be quite keen for a drink but I probably won't know how free I am until next weekend. Will let you know.
I'm likely to be wrecked by the time I arrive. It was a nine hour flight to Hong Kong, and I'll be here another nine hours before the 16 hour flight to Newark. Hong Kong is humid. I had forgotten.
Melbourne, yes. The Boston of the South, apparently.
