The Big Apple

We arrived in New York on Sunday evening... and given a big night out on the town in Boston on Saturday night we had a nice early night after getting settled in our hotel. The hotel is fantastic right off 7th Avenue (Fashion Ave - how appropriate) on 34th Street. Yesterday we spent the day exploring the Chelsea, Greenwich & Soho areas.... there is just so much to see! We started off at Barney's Co-op which is a part of the Barney's department store chain, but this location only carries current trends and fashionable labels. We then walked down Bleecker Street... and couldn't resist a stop in at the Marc Jacobs superstore... I swear by the end of this trip I'll be funding his latest stint in rehab!

We spent the afternoon exploring Prince, Mercer, Spring and Greene Streets in Soho - so many shops & galleries to see! I don't think you could see them all even if you lived here! We then returned to a favourite from last time for dinner - Lombardi's Pizza Parlour. Voted best pizza in New York and it didn't disappoint.
