Day 43
After such a
very full day yesterday we all needed a ‘rest day’. It was good to just have some time out, watch
a few movies and just relax. Julee felt
like doing some cooking so we went
off to the ‘Whole Food Market’ near Union Square and bought some goodies. It was so nice to have a real home cooked
meal.
Day 44
Today we
walked along Broadway to Soho – so named as it is short for South of Houston
Road which divides it from Greenwich Village.
There are a couple of blocks known as Noho – I’ll let you work that one
out.
We found
another lovely deli for a morning coffee and a Thai café for lunch. The unfortunate part was that it drizzled
rain all day – at least it wasn’t snow.
We had a look through a few shops.
I particularly wanted to see ‘Bloomingdales’. It was really not much different to Myers but
it was good to see it anyway. We went
into one shop both Julee and I loved.
Most of the stock was made in Barcelona.
It was very colourful and gorgeous.
Unfortunately for me it was made for petite people – something I
definitely am not. Oh well……time for a
cuppa – this time we went to one of the NY uni. Coffee shops called ‘Think
Coffee’. It was great fun but very
noisy.
So home we
went. On the way the boys bought a
bottle of red and Julee and I went to a supermarket and bought some more
supplies for a yummy pasta for tea. We
planned to go to the movies this evening.
We got ready in our coats, hats and scarves ready for the cold and a few
drops of rain and headed out – it was absolutely teeming down so back up the
lift, off with our coats, and a nice night in seemed like a good idea.
