14 Days!


That's how many more days until the start of five lifelong friends' big New York City adventure on November 1, 2011 to celebrate their turning the big 5-O.  And, they're taking me, Keoki, along!

It all began a year ago when they decided they wanted (needed) to go somewhere special to commemorate this milestone.  So, over food and drinks at Dave & Busters they each chose three places by secret ballot.  The unanimous place that they all chose was, you guessed it, New York!   

And so the meetings and planning began.  Imagine five women experiencing "the city that never sleeps"....together....for the first time....all on their own.  No husbands, no boyfriends, no kids, no tour group.  And, lucky me, I get to tag along.  What an adventure it promises to be!

Their very first meeting was dinner at Tsukiji's.  Then, they realized they needed to save money, so their subsequent monthly get-togethers to plan their itinerary were at Flo's over food, drinks, love, laughter and fun.  They sure love that moscato.  Whew!  It's a wonder they got anything done.
