David 'Illusionist' Blaine Went to see David Blaine at the Lincoln Centre this afternoon, just because its only a short walk from our place. He was still in his bubble thing waving at the public. There wasn't enough cheeseburger lobbing in my opinion, it was all very civilised. He does his drowning thing tomorrow night so we'll see how that goes.
Sat in Central Park and read the paper for a bit, until the hayfever hit and my right eye swelled up like i'd had a few rounds in the ring. So we came home quick smart and I spent the rest of the afternoon with a cold flannel on my eyes! Not a very good Sunday afternoon.
Redeemed by the film we saw this evening , "The Proposition" written by Nick Cave. Really good film, beautiful Australian scenery, go see if you get the chance. ta ta for now.

  Conferencing in San Francisco In March Carrie had to attend a work-related conference. Luckily, the conference was in San Francisco, so after presenting my work, some work friends and I hired a car, drove across the Golden Gate bridge and visited the giant redwood trees at Muir Woods.

  We Braved it to the Bronx On a sunny day at the beginning of March We decided to head to the New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx with friends Cathy and Sascha. Although there weren't any flowers out in the grounds, the weather was lovely and the orchid show was amazing.
