So here I am back again! Got to talk New York really - even though I've so much to complete at home. As ever that place is amazing. We actually saw a pig on a lead , out for a walk and a cat too!! The cat was unbelievably perched on top of its owner's head - happy as larry and completely unphased by its surroundings, waiting to cross the road in the Wall Street/ financial district. How crazy!

Any way, we stayed downtown this time and didn't regret it for a minute. Our apartment was on the 2nd floor above a really old eatery  -'Yonah Schimmel's Knishes'. Such character, history and realism.

 

How cool is the front door? No graffiti inside, thankfully.This is a flavour of the neighbourhood - mosaic covered lamp posts, so cute!

The East Village was a couple of blocks away and they were actually filming a movie in one street we walked down. The street was lined with cars from the 1950's, with actors dressed accordingly.

Will return with some more Big Apple nuggets. CIAO for now!xxx
