Edwarda, I went to Tavern on the Green this summer. I was very good, even if there is better, and the ambiance is still delightfully fanciful...Of course, I am a tourist<g>....

Dear Edwarda, I am planning a car trip from the D.C. metro area to Nova Scotia to see the eclipse on August 11. Do you know what is the best way to circumvent New York city via automobile? My husband thinks we should take the New Jersey Turnpike until we can link up with the Garden State Parkway, and take that to where it tees at I87/287 and cut back over to I95 at, it looks like, Rye. Are you familiar with these routes?

BTW, Tavern on the Green is for tourists only. When I lived in NYC I was, of course, too jaded and too sophisticated to do the "tourist" things. When I went back as a tourist with my children I was able to do them on the excuse that they were really for my children, not for me. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I think many New Yorkers cut themself from entertaining and enjoyable experiences by dismissing them as "tourist" things. OTOH, now that I live in a tourist destination, I do the same thing here. I have lived in the San Juans for 20 years and never been on a whale watching trip because it is too "touristy," and my friends would crook their eyebrows at me if they saw me doing it. Why do we so limit ourselves?
