We woke up on this beautiful hot, sunny day, ate our daily breakfast of bakery fresh muffins, croissants, and bagels and took the metro to City Hall. With the weather so nice we couldn’t resist a little stroll across the historic Brooklyn Bridge- the first steel wire suspension bridge in the world. Neither of us was particularly excited about coming here but did because of a strong recommendation by Rick & Barb. When we got there and started to take in the web of cables and clear Manhattan views we really, really feel in love with it.
Afterwards, we went around a few blocks to the South Street Seaport. The appetite from the walk demanded drought beer and hot dogs from a street stand and so we gave in, and ate them on the dock in the warm sun. The atmosphere on the wharf was a great a mix of business men on lunch breaks, tourists, and some families. We did some shopping in the old brick buildings of the Seaport for a while then returned home.
At home we ate dinner and had a few beers. Matt got a bit tired but Alissa insisted that we got out at least for one drink. We decided to go to Dos Caminos mainly because of location right on the pizza slice intersection of 14th , Greenwich and Hudson- the entrance into the party hungry Friday nighter’s favourite- Meatpacking District.
We sipped on our drinks at our outside table watching the drunken spectacle unfold around us… ahh …. New York.
