First full day started with an explorative walk to Whole Foods at 97th and Amsterdam.  The plan was was to have a delivery of all the heavy items and dry goods.  NYC is so densely populated that Whole Foods only delivers within a 10 block distance.  Whole Foods in Kensington delivers throughtout Kensington and Chelsea.  Alas, we had to revert to a rather down in the mouth Gristedes which did willingly deliver right to the front door.
We continued walking in beautiful Indian summer sunshine and then bought our MTA passes and  hopped on the M 104 bus at 72nd for the short and very slow trip to Lincoln Center.  Lunch was at a tired Alehouse on Amsterdam.  On the walk home we passed Pure Yoga on 77th which Sydney introduced me to many moons ago.  It is a very seductive place and I was seduced.  My pricey membership runs for a month. 
Cooking our first supper at 124 W 80th worked pretty well.  After we buy a couple of mixing bowls, a serving spoon or two , a pair of scissors and some tupperware , it should get even easier and better.
