Ok, for each of the posts for theme parks I’m going to set them out thustly: Highlights Food Outfit compliment competition Summary I’m not going to worry about step counts anymore as the rides threw that off too much. Highlights Rocking Rollercoaster starring Aerosmith. This was a great ride! Totally unexpected. I can’t recommend going […]
We had a stupidly early flight to Orlando from NYC so we were both pretty tired and slept for most of the flight which was rare for George. Once we landed, the magic started. Disney have everything under control. It is sheer briliance! Our free airport transfer bus was there waiting to take us to […]
Our last day in this amazing city. There is so much more we could have done (read eaten) but we already packed so much into our 2 weeks here. For our last day on the recommendation of our Airbnb hosts, we walked across the Williamsburg Bridge. Before this though, we visited Katz’s Deli for one […]
So it was meant to be raining and thunderstorming all day. So what better to have for lunch than the original soup man soup! As continues our tradition of going to places because of their pop culture references, this place was the inspiration for the Soup Nazi character in Seinfeld. The soup was good. I […]
So due to yesterday’s activities, I woke up with mild shin splints. So our morning was very lazy. It was also quite rainy and drizzly outside which also made for a slow moving day. Still not super hungry around lunch time, we ventured out to see the UN. As it was a weekend, everything was […]
Sorry it has been a while since drinks! I’ve been distracted! Anyhoo, back to the good stuff! I was quite excited about going to today’s lunch destination as a Seinfeld fan. That’s right, the legendary Tom’s Restaurant which the outside was used as the front of the diner. The booths were full so we sat […]
Today was meant to be quite rainy, so we decided to do the Natural History Museum before heading out to Yankee Stadium to see the Yankees play. However, we had make one little stop to Doughnut Plant as George had found out they made the best doughnuts in NY. So duh we were going. The […]
So, it turns out you have to book in advance to visit the Statue of Liberty. It was a good thing we didn’t want to climb the crown as that is actually booked up till the end of September! We did manage to get a place on the boat over there though. Now, let me […]
To start out today, we headed off to Russ & Daughters to try a proper NY bagel. My word there were a lot of fillings to choose from! George decided on the classic with smoked salmon and horseradish cream cheese, whilst I went adventurous snd had the pastrami cured salmon with sauerkraut and mustard. They […]
We started the day still feeling pretty full from that pizza the night before, so we had another slice and some berries and off we trekked to the museum mile. The first stop was the Guggenheim. The architecture of the building is pretty spectacular. Again, I forgot to take some photos, my bad. But it […]
