It is a rainy evening in NY.

I had a nice day today, doing some gym exercises, walking in Central Park, and having lunch at a lovely Kosher restaurant downtown. Some are shopping at Nike, where prices are more or less 60% of the European ones, and the choice is much bigger. I will have dinner at a seafood restaurant on West 57th Street in the evening—fantastic lobster and oysters accompanied by a great California wine.

Relaxing! My mobile has been off all day, but I still have some messages from work, and I have to reply.

There has been a storm tonight, which is still going on while I write, and I am unsure about tomorrow’s visit to Miss Liberty. I managed to get the tickets to walk up the Crown. Let’s hope I will get up and be there on time.

It was nice to talk to some old friends today. One is a journalist working for the New York Times, and another lady is a violinist. They were both enthusiastic about the “New America” of Barack Obama. I wonder when Italians will have the same honour of declaring themselves “enthusiastic” about something, especially politics. We are lucky enough if our politicians steal a bit less than the previous ones, and even this hope always goes unattended…

Anyway, it’s time to go to sleep.

Catch later!
