<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I arrived in New York, around 10 a.m.  The weather looks great outside.  It was a full flight so I had to gate check my carry on luggage.  I found baggage claim, got my luggage.  I saw the sign for the Uber\/Lfyt pick up, which was supposed to be door 9 to 11 but when I went into my Lyft app, I was instructed to go to door 13.  Luckily it was quick and simple. I was able to get to door 13 to meet my Lyft driver. He was driving a 2022 Toyota sienna hybrid. I had a difficult time communicating with him as he doesn\u2019t speak much English.  I was the only passenger in the van so it was pretty nice and spacious,  It took about one hour to get to my hotel.   I\u2019m staying at a Hilton hotel, close to the office where I will be this week.   Weather was sunny and in the 70s.  It was about 12:15pm by the time I arrived at the hotel.  I had planned to work in the hotel lobby but they told me that my room was ready so I headed straight to my room.  The hotel and room is somewhat outdated but clean.  My biggest complaint is why they don\u2019t have a microwave in each room.  They do have a small refrigerator and a coffee maker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon arrival in the hotel, I had a late lunch in the restaurant next to the hotel and it was not a pleasant experience.  The only decent food was the chicken dumpling.  Oh well, it should suffice until dinner.  I had Chinese for dinner.  Food was better than my late lunch.   The rest of the week\u2019s lunch was take-out pizza for lunch, sandwich and chips, and leftover.  As for dinner, I ate at the hotel\u2019s restaurant.  It was chicken wings.  It was average.   I ordered dinner via DoorDash.  I just didn\u2019t feel like venturing out this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lunch that didn’t agree with me.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n


Travel:  I am so grateful for an uneventful flight to and from NY.  I am also back flying with Delta.  I decided not to rent a car so I car-pooled with a coworker to and from hotel to office.  I arrived home safely on Thursday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As this is my first trip to this client\u2019s office, I am grateful that things went well.  I am always happy to meet my team in person.  There is no replacement for that in person connection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
