@handyandysaid I haven't been back for years. How about you?
I was there a couple or a few years ago with good friends. We had such a good time. All of us had suggested things to do and places to see, and we tried to do as much as possible. My favourites: Metropolitan Opera, Brooklyn bridge, Times square, Guggenheim and many other things. Just love it and the people there.

I worked there for many years before moving to New England. I still miss it now and then.

Doesn't matter where you go in the world. It is always the people that make the place, not the other way around. I think in Canada and I've been to most of the Provinces, but the kindest most generous giving people would me in my opinion from Newfoundland!

There is something about the people you meet in Manhattan. You may not expect such friendly people in such a big place but we only met kind and helpful people, curious about where we came from because they heard we spoke with an accent. And it had nothing to do with money on those occasions.

How many strangers do you know would tell you where the key was and to drop in and use the place for the week-end if they happen to be gone? That is the kind of people I'm talking about that live in Newfoundland. The people that landed there back during 911 were probably the most lucky of every one, including planes that landed here in Halifax. Life long friendships were made here but especially in Newfoundland.
@Very-Rusty You love kind, helpful people wherever you meet them but I certainly didn't expect to find so many of them in Manhattan with so much people and me feeling so insignificant. London is lovely too in the same way.

I take it you've NEVER been to Newfoundland, very scenic, besides having the kindest most giving people in the world. If I seem Bias it is because I am.
