John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn needed time alone from each other. He checked into the Stanhope Hotel. He checked into Room 1511. Carolyn told John to get a hotel room and work on the fate of the magazine George. John felt very comfortable at the hotel. His mother Jacqueline had lived down the street in an apartment building. He was used to room service there. His normal meal was a turkey club sandwich and mineral water.

A short time later, there was a knock at the door. It was a friend of his. Her name was Julie Baker. They dated for a while. Now, she was one of John's closest friends.

The next day by 10:30 am, John had his cast removed from his foot. He was now wearing a blue bandage. He still needed crutches to get into his Lincoln Town Car. He ate lunch at San Domencio. John often dined there. The restaurant was in Central Park South. Wearing dark glasses, he sat at his usual table. He ate spaghetti and grilled sea bass. 

J F K Jr thought about his mother Jackie. She had a premonition that he would die piloting his own plane. He worked out in the afternoon at La Palestra. He was asleep by 2:00 am.
