Our morning started with an early walk to the Austrian Café Sabarsky on Fifth Avenue for a cup of melange with Linzertorte.
We were hopeful that the sun would pop out and the day would warm up,
but until then, we detoured to the nearby Metropolitan Museum of Art where we strolled until two in the afternoon looking at so many famous images that we've read about and have seen in books.

And some very beautiful ladies...
I would love to own this still-life,
or some stained glass by Tiffany.
Diana and I decided that if we ever lived in New York City,
we would belong to the "Met",
and each week we would visit and study one room at a time thoroughly.

And I would draw and be an artist...
Edgar Degas' "Little Dancer".
Next, Central Park.
Sun,
park benches,
music,
children,
horses and carriages,
street lights...

...and a wedding.
A late afternoon walk to the subway,
...and dinner at the Oyster Bar and Restaurant at Grand Central Station.
Another perfect day...
