Taking the red-eye is the quickest, cheapest way to get here. In less than seven hours (12:45 a.m. - 6:45 a.m.), we went from 5280 altitude to sea level thousands of miles away. The flip side, though, is that you lose your inner time sense, along with some hours of sleep. (The plane was too full to stretch much or give the knees a rest.) Nonetheless, less than 24 hours after we left Denver, the girls were having their pictures taken with King Kong on the top of the Empire State Building! Talk about surreal...
A good night's sleep helped, and we're getting ready to go out to see Her Ladyship, as well as the Ellis Island museum. Tomorrow starts the appraisers conference. I'm stoked already.
