new york day 1

here's just one of the pictures taken today. i enjoyed visiting the cloisters-lots of medieval art and tapestries. also another trip to the met, which was soo worth it as i saw a wonderful special exhibit of american artists, and some works by vermeer. also saw the robert frank photos suggested by polly. made some stops at the trim and buttons shops, but didn't find quite what i was looking for. i did a lot of walking, maybe too much so that by the time i got back to katie's my knees were killing me! there are more photos here on flickr. am bummed that katie doesn't feel well, but hopefully she'll be right as rain tomorrow (or at least by saturday). tomorrow i hope to go explore the brooklyn area- park slope, prospect park, etc.
