We spent the 2nd day in New York walking around Greenwich Village which I think was my favorite part of NYC |
There seemed to be photo-worthy scenes everywhere. |
A friend of mine recommended The Spotted Pig restaurant, which was a very funky place. |
We scored a seat by the window and watched all the goings-on outside. |
I had a roasted beet salad and Scott had a Cubano sandwich...oh and beer. It was yummy. |
Washington Square Park was a crazy place with lots of activity including this amazing jazz band. |
Not sure how this guy managed to get a grand piano into the middle of the park, but he was very talented. |
We took the Staten Island Ferry to get a closer look at Lady Liberty. |
I thought Wall Street and the Financial District were very imposing. |
New World Trade Towers still under construction |
We went to a matinee of "Memphis", it was excellent. |
I loved the tiled signs at each subway station. |
Did I tell you that my husband got asked for id.....twice? I mean really....I'm 4 years younger than him. No one asked for my id. (Oh, and I must tell you....he had a hat on each time {wink} |
Having supper at an Italian restaurant. |
This cute waiter at the restaurant had only been in the USA for 11 days. He came from Naples and his English was very limited, he was very charming. |
I had to take a picture of these swings that were in Bryant Park. I'm trying to convince Scott to make me one for our verandah. Aren't they dreamy? |
This all looks so fun! The first pic reminds me of "You'e Got Mail". I didn't realize they were rebuilding the Twin Towers. I love beets and think that lattes & croissants from that cute bakery would be well worth lots of miles! You and your hubby are such a cute couple, how great that you got away together!
