Highline Park and Greenwich Village

A lot of walking. Subway free day. Only 1 coffee break.

To YALE via Grand Central

Spent a great day with Bec Aston at Yale. Relaxed train ride from NYC to New Haven and back. Yale was a very impressive in scale and depth

Gugenheim and Central Park

A lot of walking up to Central Park. Did The Gug - great resident exhibitions. The current feature was (IMHO) a Dud (Christopher Wool) .... but a lot of sophisticated people looking at the wrok with great intensity.  

Lombardis MoNA and The Halal Guys

Lombardis for lunch after another shopping campaign. The MoNA and its 4 block long queue. Slotted the non coffee drinkers into the Q and waited until they came past us at Starbucks. Then The Halal Boys for NYs (alleged) best Streetside Food Trailer. It was good and we had heard of them all the way from AUS 

Thrift Shops and 5th Avenue

Two alternative paradigms. A lot of good walking. Brunch at Penelopes reminsc of Friends. Cruised past the bases of Chrysler and Empire State Buildings. Had a look inside the NY Library. The Vatican of Libraries. Finished off at Madison Parks Shake Shack for a ShackStack Burger.

Stat of Lib Ellis Island and Brooklyn Nets

Chilly Day but character forming. Stat Lib & Ellis I were superb. Great Lunch on Broadway. Very entertaining game between the Brooklyn Nets and the Golden State Warriors (Atlantic Div)

MINUS 20

Interesting day. Went to the Mu of Nat History. Used the subway. And learnt to manage gloves scarves headgear and wallets in the biting cold. Hit the Thrift Shops again for good measure !!
