This morning Tony and I walked in the park, but there were no celebrity sightings. The skies were blue and there was a little breeze. It was nice. Then we took care of a few errands. We had to get some old slides digitized for Hannah. For lunch we went to Todd English's Plaza Food Hall. It is a very cool place for lunch.
We then headed down to Chelsea to the Gagosian Gallery to see the Picasso and Marie-Thérèse exhibit.

The exhibit had drawings, sculpture and paintings of Marie-Thérèse. There was even a 3-4 second video clip of her. I think maybe he found her nose attractive. It was long and straight, just like the painting above.
We then walked over to the High Line and looked out over the city and the Hudson. Turning that old railway into a park was a stroke of genius!

Tonight we met Hannah at Casa Lever for dinner. Hannah talked non-stop about everything she has been learning in the program. She has been invited by the friend of a friend who is in an internship at the Met this summer to the Alexander McQueen party at the Met. The party is this Friday night. The friend told Hannah and the other two girls that they needed to "act like they beonged there." We laughed at that. As you might guess, the most pertinent question is "What do you wear?" Ha!
After dinner Hannah headed back to the UWS and Tony and I walked back to the apartment, stopping at the Peninsula Hotel to see the view from the top.
