I found about this site from reading about the Blog Awards. And you truly deserved your award, I must say. Isn't that just a bummer..you're in New York in spring/summer and you have hay fever. That's exactly the same reason why we postponed our 3 week (like you) honeymoon. 4th honeymoon, actually. I have the most horrible case of rhinitis that when bunched up with hay fever can render me almost comatose. It happened to me on my last trip to NY and on the night before coming home!! My husband insisted that it was an allergic reaction to the Grilled Portobello mushroom sandwich I had but I knew better. I've been on medication since. My pulmonologist gave me Flixotide spray which I used for a month then whenever I feel an attack coming I take it for 3 days straight. It's been ok. I'll be reading your posts to prepare for our honeymoon in NY September. It'll be fall by then so no worries. Cheers! Love your site. I found about this site from reading about the Blog Awards.

I hear Nasalcrom is a good over-the-counter nasal spray that coats the nasal passages & protects the nose from pollen & all those air-borne allergens. I hear it takes a week of continued use for it to fully work, but it's supposed to be a safer, more effective alternative to decongestants & antihistamines. Note that it's PREVENTIVE medicine, so it doesn't work to get rid of already existing symptoms. Haven't tried it myself, but you might want to ask the local pharmacist about it. I've had my own bouts of hay fever to deal with (not abroad, fortunately), so I can totally relate to the misery.=S Enjoy the rest of your trip! Still suffering from hay fever?

When I visited NYC with my kids, my son and I were miserable with hay fever. It was mid-April last year when we visited. Ok, we were just physically miserable but we otherwise loved the city. No amount of nasal congestion could stop me from exploring the place. I had, in fact, forgotten about that until your post resurrected those memories that had been buried in the back of my brain. I am looking forward to reading about your vacation. Your foodie trips in NYC always make me drool. Marketman, I can totally relate to your misery.
