Last Day in NYC

Monday-

We wanted to do a few things, but not stress too much since we were flying home. We got up around 9 and headed to Crumbs for breakfast. I got a Lemon Poppyseed muffin, and J got a Carrot Cream Cheese muffin. Then we decided to go see the secret subway station we read about on yahoo. So we hopped on the 6 train and rode it all the way. For a minute we were scared because it just sat there, not moving. It then slowly turned around and we saw the blink-and-you-miss-it subway stop. It was barely lit up, but at least we can say we saw it! J almost missed it. We rode the train to Union Square and went to Filene's Basement (which is actually 4-6 floors UP). I got a purse, and J FINALLY got a sports coat. Then back to the hotel to check out. Off to Grand Central to catch the train eat more cheesecake.

We decided to go back to the airport a different way, so we could see a different part of the city. So we got on the train to go catch the bus. This bus must be the most popular one. It was PACKED. Standing room only the entire way to the airport (25 min.) Whew! We were so glad to get off! After a slight misplacement of my driver's license, we made it to our gate. We ate a sandwich and some chips at the airport and headed home. (P.S. The chips Food Should Taste Good. And they did. I am now a little obsessed with them. They are on sale at Kroger!)

We landed and waited for what seemed like forever for our shuttle to the parking lot. On the way home, we ate at Tripp's- and they actually had NYC cheesecake on their menu (from the rival of the place we ate at.) But we didn't get any. :)

So that wraps up our trip! We had a great time and saw almost everything we wanted to see. What a great weekend trip! A check off the 'Places We Want to Visit' list. :)

Food Should Taste Good chips are amazing! When they have them on sale I definitely stock up. Right now I have four bags! Love the sweet potato and multigrain. They always have coupons too, which make it even better.
