Thanks for your report, Pat. sounds like a wonderful vacation to me! I have a question; we also live in CT. How do you travel to JFK? We usually hire a car, but it's becoming so pricey. This year, our flight was at 6:30 am, so stayed at the TWA Hotel the night before, also adding to the total cost of the trip.
If life hands you a lemon, just squeeze it on a lobster!
