I remember about when this idea rang out: it was in September 1998. Everything began when we've decided to do something special for our 30th birthdate: An important discussion, around an important activity as well.

| Doing some trip planning. |
Among us was Scote. Scote made many trips to Boston already, and dreamt for a long time to visit New York. The ideal occasion arose by itself!
During the following weeks, things got organized step by step. Scote was in charge to find a place to stay. Michel was to find us the transport. Everyone had to suggest some places to visit.
On my side, I did not do a lot; already was I worrying about American's violent cities... Going to New York was not a good idea to me, and especially for anyone of us who wanted to reach his 31st anniversary, alive! The fact that we were going to be three however, contributed to lower my aprehensions.
In early November, we met for the last time before our departure. We agreed onto our itinerary, the stay, the places to visit, the $$$, and take the oportunity to put all that in order.
