December 4 NYC

Light breakfast at Starbuck's, still stuffed from the ribs last night. Rick and Kate had some shopping to do, so Nancy and I walked down 5th Avenue to FAO Schwarz.

We also stopped at the see through cube for the Apple Store.

 Rick and Kate joined us and we all wandered around the Plaza Hotel and walked back down 7th Avenue to the Carnegie Deli. Nancy and I shared a giant pastrami sandwich. We waddled back to the hotel and dropped off our souvenirs.

Rick wanted to go to the New York Metro Transit Museum in Brooklyn. Naturally, we headed for the underground and another subway trip. It was well put together and fun for the train buffs. We came back to Manhattan on the "F" train for our last trip on the subway. Note - the subway look is between zombie and a blank stare at the floor. Eye contact is very seldom, except for children. 

Note the live in museum cat.

We were really tired and stopped at Rosie O'Grady's for some libations and a chance to rest our feet.


We went back to the to the Carnegie Deli for the best cheesecake we had during the trip. We window shopped all the way back to Times Square.

 We couldn't miss walking through the M&M Store and the Hersey's Chocolate Stores. What a madhouse. Rick and Kate were leaving early the next morning, so we said our goodbyes and went back to the room to pack.
