Are you a dahn-suh?
 

If you've not seen this company, you don't know what you're missing. I happened upon them many years ago and see them when they are in residency in NY.

A visceral experience like none other.

Still time to get tickets.

Picasso painted. Pilobolus dances. Go. See. Experience. Art.

Whales in the City
 

Because their favorite feeding fish is seemingly aplenty off the coast of Manhattan, whales are within view of the city.

If you've never seen a whale, you won't friggin' believe it when you do. Magnificent creatures!

Check out these tours and get yourself an experience you'll never forget.

Yesterday, I went to the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum, conveniently located at Pier 88 on the West Side Highway. http://www.intrepidmuseum.org

If you live in NYC or are visiting, fun and interesting thing to see and experience.

GO. You will have fun!

Where The Cool Kids Go
 

One of the best cultural resources, and the coolest, in NYC, IMHO, is the great 92Y --> http://www.92y.org

Great lectures, classes, talks, music, dance, health, fitness.

Affordable!
