We were at the Yale Club on Satuday night for the first wedding of 2008. All signs pointed towards Manhattan being one big traffic jam with the Pope’s visit and Earth day both happening at the same time. The Yale Club sits right in the middle of the streets that were blocked off for the pope.  Incredibly it was smooth sailing and a relaxing day and excellent evening. They have an amazing rooftop lounge where the cocktail hour was held, perfect for spring or summer, and they staff at the Yale Club is top notch.
