“Depending on when you go, the traffic may be fairly light or so heavy you wish you hadn’t started out. The worst thing about it is parking. When I was newly released from my vows and I drove into the city for the first time, alone at the wheel, I was stunned at the cost of parking. That was about six years ago and it has gotten worse. Jack tells me not to worry about it, that I do it so seldom that it doesn’t make a difference, but paying over twenty dollars for the privilege of getting out of ...my car and getting somewhere on foot still gives me palpitations. There had been some back-and-forth between Joseph and me, and between Arnold and me, everybody arguing about where to eat and each one insisting on paying. I had made up my mind to pick up the bill myself and pay with my one credit card, courtesy of my husband, who insisted I carry it. The restaurant was far enough east that I was able to park at a lower rate. One of the things you learn as an out-of-town driver is that the closer you are to Fifth Avenue, the spiritual and financial main artery of the city, the more it costs to park.MoreLessRead More Read Less
