Welcome

Formerly titled "The Traveling Job Coach" and then "The Traveling Athletic Director," this blog is
for me and my memory because it's not very good.
My memory is not very good. See what I mean?

This blog has also morphed into a place for me to share my thoughts on life and how I see the world.
These thoughts often bubble to the surface during my travels.

I don't concern myself with grammar. This is simply a place for me to record my memories,
thoughts and feelings while I travel.

I started this blog before my trip to Europe July 10-24, 2009. Email me at brosefield@gmail.com
whilst I'm traveling or comment on posts here if you see something that
strikes your fancy.

Yes, I used the words whilst and fancy in the same paragraph.

Governors Island

Honestly I had never heard of Governors Island but as Blas dropped me off at my hotel(yep no air bnb the rest of this trip at least), I had some time to burn until meeting up with Leslie at 3 so I bought the $3 round trip ferry ticket and checked out the island. Wow. What a cool place. Yes there were tourists however it appeared that some locals were there with their families just enjoying the fields and beautiful weather. Unreal views of lower Manhattan as well. They seem to be slowly improving the island and I really liked that it didn't feel terribly touristy. Tons for kids to do with multiple playgrounds. Ice skating rink too. Really cool spot.

Oh and they're building what appears to be a Glampground. All of the tents open up to a view of lower Manhattan.
