4:00 AM wake-up call...ugh... |
Monday April 8:
· 4:00 The girls got
up to go to the TODAY SHOW. We left the
room an hour later to join the in line.
(they were #2). Jackie and I
picked up two toasted bagels ($2 WITH a big schmear of cream cheese). At 8:30, the show is over.
· We walked down to 42nd
St, to take the #7 train to Hudson yards!! (10:00 tickets)
· THE VESSEL WAS
AMAZING…we went inside the shops, did a bit of a walkaround…
· We took the subway
over to 42nd Street, then transferred to the #1 down to Battery
Park.
· We got on the
Staten Island Ferry, took some pictures of the Statue of Liberty.
· We took a cab up
to the 911 Memorial, and went inside the Occulus.
· We cabbed to
Katz’s Deli at 205 E. Houston Street.
· We walked to the Tenement
Museum (103 Orchard Street) for our 4:15
Tour. It was about the lives of
immigrant families, who were garment workers at the turn of the century…
· We took the subway to the 4th Street Station for 8:00 Magical Nights Inc. The Players
Theater
· We stopped in at a corner bar and had a drink and some water.
· Then, we walked over to Washington Square Park and walked around.
· After the show, we went across the street to POMME FRITTES…where
we actually got a table. You needed a
code to get into the bathroom, and had to push a button to get out.
· We took the Subway back up to Rockefeller Center (orange, B,D.F.M)
Busy day! I'm sure you'll have future posts about some of the activities :-) Isn't the Occulus the craziest mall you've ever seen? It just doesn't seem to fit being across the street from the 911 Memorial.
ReplyDeleteYou are right about the Occulus. I think it's a complete miss...but, hey -- maybe they used to say the same thing about the Eiffel Tower. Time will tell...
