Leia and I rang in midnight on New Years Eve at a salsa party in Astoria, Queens, after which we trekked into the city in the FREEZING COLD temperatures. I almost cried after a mere two minutes waiting for a cab...and I'm fairly certain I got frostbite on my very exposed toes! Oh well...nothing a good drink couldn't clear up later. :)
Our post-Astoria trekking eventually led us to Tribeca Hotel.
Later in the weekend, I experienced my first Burlesque show at the lower eastside's Slipper Room. Leia's friend from San Francisco had a show that night. And I thought salsa costumes could get skimpy!
