I've eaten waaaay too many hotdogs |
We are up even earlier today
– I think we are getting back on track. Last night’s sleeping environment was
something else – garbage trucks backing up, sirens, honking etc, etc., we’re
not sleeping in the middle of the ocean any more! Nonetheless we got a ton of
sleep – I think the beds in this hotel are all about extremes last the first
night we slept in the world’s tiniest bed and last night I’m certain the bed
was the biggest I've slept in.
Our plans for the day were
thwarted a bit once the rain hit. We were on our way downtown with pretty much
all outdoor activities in mind – nope. It wasn't a lot of rain, but we jumped
on the subway and headed for the Guggenheim Museum art museum. As it turned out the
rain didn't amount to much, and we had planned to visit this trip at some
point anyway. This is a very manageable place that we get through in a couple
of hours. Our visit uptown also checked off walking through Central
Park from our to do list.
Although not exactly a
‘street’ hot-dog we got a hot-dog from Papaya King – I am WAY over my hot dog
quotient this trip, I think this is my third!
Yankees |
And then came walking. The
rain was long gone and the skys were clearing and we walked and walked. Then we
stopped for a glass of wine and some calamari before doing a bit of shopping.
The Yankees were in town so
after another subway ride we were in the Bronx
at Yankee Stadium - time for another 12.00 beer.
