A blog for older adults about loving this City even when your knees hurt and your hearing is not what it used to be!
“When you go to bed and the schools haven’t been closed yet, follow these three steps.”
Step 1. Put your pajamas on inside out
Step 2. Put two ice cubes in the toilet and flush
Step 3. Put a spoon under your pillow.
It worked!! She’s home!!
You just never know!
Love this City…gorgeous when it’s snowing and it is snowing. Stay safe!

The Met has announced a major change in how to pay to enter this spectacular museum.
From New York State? Can still pay-as-you-wish, if not, check this out.
From their website:
With this update, our pay-as-you-wish policy will continue for New York State residents and students from across the tristate region, while visitors from outside New York will be required to pay mandatory admissions; admission for children under 12 will remain free. The Museum will also now honor full-priced admissions tickets for three consecutive days, giving all visitors more time to experience each of The Met’s three locations. We anticipate that the mandatory admissions component will affect approximately 31 percent of our annual visitors. General admission is $25 for adults; $17 for seniors; $12 for students; and free for Members, Patrons, and children under 12.
Now that that’s settled, and you’re going, here’s a helpful bit of info I think I’ve mentioned before. It’s for those of us who prefer not to walk
up those steep stairs at the main entrance, there is a better way to go. To the left of the main entrance (south side) there is an entry to use without stairs. Great for us seniors, wheelchairs, strollers. In addition, there is a coat check, restrooms, and usually a much shorter line to pay admission plus a small discounted Met shop.
Weather is warming up and in keeping with spring, the Met has a beautiful new exhibition opening March 12th, Public Parks, Private Gardens from Paris to Provence. So come on in!
Love this City and love love love The Metropolitan Museum of Art!
KAY’S NOTES:
Important to know: Check out their website for everything The Met has to offer. https://www.metmuseum.org/ And it’s not just their magnificent art!
Where to eat: Want to sit, have a cup of coffee, no rush and enjoy the view? Try the cafe at the American Wing.( good for kids) For something more than coffee, there are a few to chose from. Ask for dining options when you pay your admission. Kids in tow? You probably know there is a cafeteria in the lower floor that serves all their favorites.
