A lot of things fit into this trip, which made it a great time. Somewhere between 300 and 350k of riding my mountain bike (on pavement mostly, sounds shorter end, but that's three 5 hour days on average), plenty of client entertainment, plus taking in investor presentations from the best public energy companies in Canada, which gave me some good portfolio tweaking thoughts. Managed to get out for a dinner with cousin Carol and husband Harvey, which was great - both the food and the catching up. Next time is most likely either New York again or Paris this summer, hope we can make either happen.
And last but not least, all of this was with my new french girlfriend, Tori. Biking, conference and entertainment, there's only small bits of it we didn't do together - May or June in France is probably next.
I really enjoy New York. From business to entertainment to dining and even outdoors activity there's always something going on. There was something about sipping an "1860 Manhattan" in the Waldorf lobby bar under 30' ornate ceilings with live piano music background that just summed it up right - the place does a pretty good job of being all things to all people.
