NYC Day One - part 2
Now that I’ve rested up I feel better about things despite the fact that I discovered this morning that my nice Diesel belt is also missing. I still feel violated and I still hope the luggage thief is equalized by karma (some sort incident involving tripping down some stairs while wearing my shoes would be good) but I’m now laughing about the incident.
Last night, other than worry about the state of my luggage which had yet to be delivered, was an amazing night. We started off with some dinner at a small pub one and half blocks from Marcos’ apartment. It’s a great little pub and happens to be the pub featured at the start of the movie Cocktail. Neat. Then we walked down to Times Square, took the subway into Grand Central Station and then headed to an area Marcos called ‘Alphabet City’. There we hit this cool reggae bar and I tried a shisha pipe, which was a rather cool experience. Then after leaving there shortly before 2am, we went in search of a hot dog vendor but settled on a late night pizza place.
The pizza was one of the best slices I’ve had to date, but the best part about the pizza was being mistaken for homeless people (Marcos’ blog tells the sotry best) while eating the pizza. Yes, it’s been a bizarre day. Fun, but bizarre. It seems that in NYC if anyting can happen, it will… good, bad or bizarre.
