Good Morning Everyone! (well, it's morning here in LA)

The bags are packed, the limo's a little less than an hour away, and this spy is ready for the fun.

Details, pics and debauchery to follow.

The next post in this thread from 003 will be coming at you from NYC later this evening.

*pours cup of Blue Mountain roast into CBn mug*

*lights cig from Dunhill case*

See you in NYC! :)

CUT TO:

Woman's hands laying out tarot cards over glass-top desk.

"A Man comes..."

"He has purpose..."

"He travels with others.."

"He consumes single-malt..."

"He will oppose..."

"He comes over land..."

"He brings violence and destruction..."


Well, it's true you know....No...REALLY. :)

"Well let's have a look at it....I may like it."

I did.

'nuff said.

*sips coffee watching sunrise over Manhattan*

Not bad I suppose.

It's been grand.

So.....

Monday was a long day of travel, but really painless. Upon settling into our rather regal corner suite (you were expecting anything UN-Bryce?) and feasting on a late-night snack - a little surf-and-turf - Falco, Muse Natalie and Miss Bellucci "Yeah, traveling with you just sucks." and I crashed out, had a good night's rest and corrected our internal clocks and then took over the Big Apple.

A stroll up Park Avenue and then over to 5th took us up to Central Park, but not before 003 made a stop at one of the only stores in the world for a "Man of the World" - Dunhill. Short of (but just barely) the price of a new DB9 I picked up some new cufflinks and a bottle of their newest cologne - X-Centric (appropriate no?) we continued on to the Lincoln Center and then back to the hotel to recharge and then it was off to Little Italy for a grand dinner at 'Casa Bella' where we were treated as family upon walking in.

A fine (if not DEVINE) meal followed (Yes Joyce, one of THOSE dinners) and we headed home - BTW, both cab rides were better than Disneyland....Gotta Love NYC cabbies - we had a "proper" martini in the lobby bar and then called it a night.

Laughs, an excellent Avo XO cigar and plans for the ladies Spa were set in place.

It's been rough, but I'm making do and loving this city.

Here's a few pics.

Cheers all! :)

....and the BCW hasn't even begun. :)

That just made me laugh out loud. :)

Glad to hear you're having such a grand time, and that the minibar is stacked with Dutch beer and... damnit! I told Johnboy to tell you to lay off the tabasco... I see I'm too late.

:)

Wanker.

Carry on, Mr. Bryce. Carry on.

As is my understanding Kara, Saturday is the big formal/costume night. Friday is at Sardi's.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Just make sure my martini is "perfect". :)

Cool pics as usual, Mr. Axworthy :)

Hope you all have a lot of fun there.

Had thought for a moment about going there, but it wasn't meant to be (would have had to cancel it anyway). Bring lots of pics and stories back home, and make sure you all get there and back safely.

As Bryce said, Saturday is the big formal/costume night. Friday is at Sardi's -- though I'm sure we'll all be dressed up for Friday night. :) Not too dressed up... but up indeed. See you Fri morn!

Flicka is looking spectacular as always.

Wish I could be there but part of having the whole dual identity is supporting your cover after all and this weekend I am "daddy". The 009 1/2s are doing great.

Q branch is getting my new truck put together complete with fridge, keg, bar, and grill and of course 6 flat screens. Should have it by November. I'll put up photos when it's done.

Have a fantastic trip all. Hope there's no death march this year. Love the updates.
