The last laugh in Weather

So, i'm back from NYC. Great trip, i highly reccomend The Empire Hotel, if your travels take you to the West side. Its actually right accross from lincoln center, has a starbucks and a duane reade right outside the front door and has an amazing rooftop patio where you can enjoy the fresh air, grab a drink and for the ludicrous price of 150.00 enjoy a cabana with 2 towels, flip flops and a flat screen t.v., you get to use the cabana from either 9:00 a.m.- 4:oo p.m. or 5:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m., what a bargain! Only in NY!

Now onto the weather. After stressing over having nothing to wear that would be NY appropriate in May, i arrived to a sunny day, with temps in the high 50's. By 5:00 p.m, it was windy, somewhat gray in and in the low 50's. Day 2 brought rain and wind and cold weather. And then it hit me, New Yorkers are so happy there is no snow and that the temp has climbed out of the 30's and 40's that they think May is beatiful. Oddly enough, they wear their trousers and jackets with flip flops and still have on moderately heavy winter coats.

NEWSFLASH- May in NY is not summer and really not even spring! IT'S DAMN COLD!
