New Hampshire

Eric and I arrived today in New Hampshire after many months of anxiously awaiting a much needed vacation.

We booked our stay in a beautiful resort nestled in the White Mountain National Forest off the Kancamagus Highway, considered one of the most scenic byways of the United States. The timeshare was lofty 3 bedrooms, two baths, with full kitchen, dinning area, fireplace and all of the amenities expected of a 5 star ski lodge.

My favorite of those amenities was the outdoor heated hot tub which helped ease the muscle and knee aches associated with hours of skiing down white powdered mountain slopes but the indoor pool and sauna are also worth mentioning.

There is something instantaneously rehabilitative about majestic mountain ranges and endless spans of wild green spaces. The calm seems to immediately absorb into ones soul and ease worldly tensions away and such would be the case for the following eight days.

Today, I went to the Contemporary Art Chanel Pavilion in Central Park. The pavilion was designed by the world famous Zaha Hadid who created a beautiful organic structure with an inner shell like feel.

The contemporary art showcased is inspired by Chanel's 2.55 chained purse. The viewer is guided through a choreographed experience narrated by Jeanne Moreau on individual MP3 players.

The exhibit was first shown in Hong Kong and then in Tokyo and will now make its way to Moscow & finally Paris.


Overall, it was a way cool experience made accessible to a very limited NY audience. I lucked out and hopefully some of you did too.
