The experience on AF1and AF1416, starting at the Air France | @airfrance Lounge in JFK where, despite just finishing lunch at the Delta One Lounge two hours ago, I still managed to eat the delicious cod they always seem to serve there.

It’s time for the Best Day of the Year in NYC! I’ll be in Wave 2 in this year’s New York City Marathon | @nycmarathon which kinda sucks as that means a later start and, more importantly, a later finish which means a longer wait for that delicious Gray’s Papaya dog.

The experience going to/from Las Vegas in Delta First Class, with some stops in Capital One Lounges along the way.

A wonderful week spent eating and drinking my way through Oktane in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas, as seen mostly from the comfort of a hotel room or vehicle.

The product on the field in the second half of the season was atrocious - thankfully, the product going into my stomach was on point.

Brunch at St. Anselm | @stanselmbk - great to see them reopen after the fire last fall.

Woke up at 7 am and snagged a 5 pm resy on… Resy for Lei | @lei.wine - seeing folks added to the wait list for the evening throughout my time there, I totally lucked out on this one.

The views from around Casa de Chá da Boa Nova | @casachaboanova, before and after lunch.

A wonderful afternoon eating and drinking my way through Pinhão.

Pinhão, as seen on a very hot, sweaty walk.

A tour of Quinta De La Rosa | @quintadelarosa where I learned a lot about the making of all kinds of port wine.

Took a day trip on a bunch of trains to see the Douro - riding the rails for six hours on a hot day in cars without air conditioning made for a long day, but the views made it worth the suffering.

A wonderful couple of Sundays eating and drinking my way through the US Open | @usopen.
