On My Own
Well my mom and cousins left today. :-( I had a great time with them here. :-)We took the double decker bus and went all over Manhattan. We started with the downtown loop and we saw Hearald Square, Greenwhich Village, Little Italy, Chinatown, Soho, Battery Park, the docks...it was freezing. Well, not literally, it was about 30 degrees. Then we took the uptown loop. We saw the Upper West Side and where John Lennon was shot, where all the stars lived, the park, Harlem, the Upper East Side, where all the really rich people live and back to Times Square. Then we went and got drunk. We intended to go for one drink and then that led to a bottle of wine--for each of us. It was great fun. My mom is cute when she drinks. Actually we were at the restuarant for so long none of us felt drunk.
Yesterday we went to the diamond district. Wow, there is some pretty stuff there. After that we went to take the last loop of the tours (the busses are a 48 hour pass if you come here). It was the night loop. We saw all of Manhattan and part of Brooklyn (it was raining but we still sat up top). Manhattan is so pretty at night. I also saw parts of Greenwhich and Soho I had never seen before. Who knew Chinatown was so big? After the night loop we went to Carmine's for dinner. You gotta love their Chicken Marsalla. It's fabulous. I tried a new martini. A mango martini. That was yummy.
That's it for now. Back to my mundane life of waking up, going to work, coming home and sleeping. Maybe I'll try another dance class tomorrow. After I do laundry.
I love New York!
