the ball has dropped ladies and gentlemen!
happy 2010! so we watched mitch head off to work to make time and a half {he's a worker bee} and bounded into times square {we figured we'd be okay the day after} it was actually pretty cool - and i'm not normally a times square fan {it's my mannhattan square exception} but it wasn't very busy, most people were staying in on the afternoon of the first, and there was still confetti on the ground.
it always makes me smile to see the police department in times square. reason number one: i feel safe, it's surrounded by cops, all of times square is surrounded by cops. reason number two: it's a block away from the subway. and reason number three: the lights flash, you can't not look at it and it's sooo time square and the only other place it could be like that is vegas.
walking away from broadway... down 46th and passing the theaters
...towards restaurant row {it's the 46th street between 8th and 9th ave}
which is where i work!
moving north we headed towards rockerfeller plaza and all that jazz. all the christmas decorations and stuff is still up. my dad was just as disappointed with the tree as we were. i would show the picture but you can take our word for it- it would just hurt your eyes a little- it looks better in the movies.
we're showing him the bryant park christmas tree tomarrow - it's way better, we both blogged about it
this its the anthropology across from the famous skating rink and tree. see, NYC isn't as crowded as you think :)
these are my favorite windows in all of new york right now. they're at bergorfs and have an alice in wonderland theme. each window has a quote from the Lewis Carrol book and it's just coolmovin' on to central park...
this is the dakota. it's beautiful huh. does it feel a little like england on central park west? raise your hand if you've ever heard of this guy called john lennon!
"strawberry feilds forever.."
i think this is the cutest church. i love the red doors. me and mitch have passed it before and then saw ghostbusters and it's in the movie. fun new york fact.
me and my dad waited in line at the world famous {everything in new york is world famous, i mean at least says it is} Carnigei's Deli a block away from carnegie hall. and let me just say: it's the best rueben i've ever had but it's three meals so find someone to share it with. Oh! and absolutely killer pickles! mmmmm so good!
we made a quick pop in at moma and saw a killer lobby display and then started back towards time square to head back to brooklyn. passing the diamond district {i know you would NEVER know it} and into the subway we go.
we went out to the Loki Lounge in Brooklyn
and continued to have a martini too many
taking a couple asprin and and a glass of water before bed
