I was up at 5 and quickly jumped into the shower. Packed up our things and walked to the deli off times square at 5:30 in the morning. The clerk wanted to know what we were doing there so early. Told him we had a train to catch at 7 from Penn Station. They had egg, bacon and English muffin biscuits prepared. They weren't very warm but acceptable. We also had them make some sandwiches for the train. We ordered a ham and cheese and a turkey and cheese on wheat bread. They sure put a lot of meat into the sandwiches. This is NY Deli style. At the hotel the doorman got us a cab at 6 AM. We didn't see any but he had his whistle and Walkie talkie and a cab magically appeared. The roads were surprisingly clear on the way to the station. He let us out at the corner on 8th ave where we got to step into the slush puddles to get to the station. There is a ticketed entry waiting area with airline style seating that is nice since they keep the street people out. The train left on time. Our business class tickets were well worth it, we have comfortable seats, drink service and AC Power.
We arrived about 15 minutes late in Cary which was acceptable. Temps around 40 felt pretty good to us. There also was no snow on the ground. We went out tonight to la Cocina for dinner. The mail was waiting for us in the mailbox since we had the held mail delivered.
