Well that's just great. I just dropped any plans on going to NY, because I had to buy a new outboard for my boat

You guys have fun though.

We could probably go on the Friday night before the heel meet. There's a chance we could draw another local in as well. You won't regret it. William Grimes, former food critic of the New York Times, gave Daniel a FOUR star rating which is quite an accomplishment considering his standard for culinary excellence.

Having comed back from Hamburg yesterday I now starts to long for my next trip, NYC in October.

I have to make sure I get the boots to the cobbler before that because it certainly is needed after the Hamburg trip. I am already getting excited and looking forward to all the things that I am going to do when there. I am much more prepared this time compared to last visit.

I see that the place to meet is the same as last time, Via Delle Zoccolette, and what I remember they serve good food. I also see that it is less than ½ mile from my rented apartment at St Marks Place.

So, you guys who haven't posted your attendance here yet, do so. It is a great way of meeting people with the same interest AND a great way to make new friends. Since last year I now have friends from many different places, Holland, USA, Canada, England, Germany, Denmark just to mention some. You will not regret if you take part in a heel meet.

If you plan on hanging out with us on Friday night, please realize that we will be eating at Daniel, a superb French restaurant.

The three course prix fixe is $98, without tip (20% recommended) and without drinks. Considering the quality of the food, that is actually a bargain.

If you want to join us on Friday night for dinner, notify me no later than Tuesday September 25, 8 pm, Eastern Standard Time U.S.

Thanks.

If you don't want to join us for dinner, you are welcome to join us for our adventures exploring the New York City nightlife. Prepare to stay out late!

It all sounds great. And a late nite it will be, last year I think I got back to the hotel around 5 in the morning......

I am counting the days now, 65 still to go.

^ On second thought, if people are traveling a long distance to come to the meet, then we can always change dinner venues for Friday night....will be back with more details.

EDIT: I just don't want to risk making a first time heel meeter who is traveling feel excluded. A final update coming within a few days.

Since hotel prices are so out of sight in NYC (and we don't spend much time in the hotel anyway) why not move Daniel's to Saturday night. Then out of towners could fly in Saturday morning, join in for the fun on Saturday afternoon and a great dinner, enjoy the night life till 5 am, and head back to the airport for the flight home. There, just saved $250 and still had a blast!

^ he,he that's an ambitious plan....the downside is that Daniel is out of the price range for some probable attendees. Since my goal is to maximize attendance and make sure no one feels left out, it's probably best to reserve Daniel for Friday night.
