Easy Shopping

There's not much room in New York, so stores often build up and not out.  The Bed Bath & Beyond about 30 blocks south of us is multiple floors with escalators for people and shopping carts.  I had never seen an escalator for just carts until moving to New York. So clever.

Hey!

I really enjoyed reading about your experiences in a new city & your blog in general, I'm not sure I could handle all that well, but you've seem to be enjoying yourself & that's what matters. I've always wanted to go to New York City & experience a different part of the country since I from a semi-small town in Kansas.

So I look forward to following your blog.

I also find "fit the space architecture" interesting. In Cuernavaca, Mexico in a Costco there is a sloping escalator for people and carts. There are no steps on the escalator. The trick is to hold onto your cart.
