LaGuardia Sunrise
Monday, August 7th, 2006
The official sunrise in New York City is reported to occur at 5:57 am. I will be here to see it from LaGuardia. Soon after, I will been on a plane toward Chicago, and time will nearly stop while I’m in the air.
The ‘city that never sleeps’ easily earns such a reputation. In Chicago I’m a night owl, but in New York I’m just normal. Very few places in this world can you order a sandwich at 3am and have the clerk assume you are sober.
New York is a city of extreme savvy. Subway riders can intertwine words intertwined with expletive and eloquence in a fashion that is unsurpassed anywhere.
General boarding begins…
