We have a lot of connections to New York.
Adam’s paternal uncle’s family lives in uptown Manhattan on the westside,
and one of my maternal aunts lives downtown on the east.
Adam’s college roommate is in Brooklyn,
while my oldest friend lives in Port Chester, 45 minutes outside the city.
I myself split my college years between Syracuse University and NYU.
Adam’s paternal aunt and uncle are based in Ithaca, and much of his mom’s family lives up near Syracuse.
Adam’s maternal uncle and aunt own a small and perfect island in the Thousand Islands,
on the St. Lawrence River up near Canada.
But with all of our travel to New York over the years, we still haven’t made it to
the Hamptons or the Finger Lakes wine country. Good thing it’s a long life.
Here are some resources to help you plan your own “travels with two” to New York.
