Soooo, the first 56 hours in New York have been fabulous so far... Yesterday we checked out Ground Zero (not really anything right now) and Madison Square Garden. Walking around Madison Square was exactly like the movies!!! The stoplight changes and a hundred people cross the street.... I'm sure you can imagine.
After eating outside at a delicious Cuban cafe we headed back down to the village to go to a Jazz club called FatCat. It was this underground bar with live jazz music, pool tables, ping pong tables, and chess games. Let me tell you that this place sold Pabst Blue Ribbon beer in the can for a mere $3. :)
Today, (Saturday) despite torrential downpour at times we ventured down to Canal Street.... This is the place one goes for fake jewelry, knock off rolex's, ripped dvds, and extremely fake (lucky we found this out) ipods. After a close call with an "ipod" vendor i walked away with two dvds, some "Tiffany" earrings, and a "Coach" clutch who's purchase involved a spiral staircase, a back room, two asian ladies, a some serious bartering (all very safe) for the low price of $19.
