New York City, NY

Instead of going back out to BJK today, Morgan decided he would rather spend the day walking around NYC. After a leisurely breakfast and packing up, we took the subway down to Little Italy to meet the Ayers family for pizza at Lombardi’s, the oldest pizza joint in NYC. It was so good! Then we all walked through Little Italy over to the Lower East Side to Economy Candy. I’m not sure who was more blown away . . . the boys or the parents! We contributed mightily to the Economy alright! Then, we took a cab over to the west side to Times Square. Morgan was in search of a flat-top cap which he found at Lidz. Of course, it’s black and red . . . what else would he choose? 😉 We hung out while they embroidered it then headed up 7th Avenue into Times Square. Along the way, we came across lots of street vendors, and I found a pair of “Lacoste” sunglasses for $10 – had to buy ’em! The boys wanted to go into the MTV store, the Hershey store and the M&Ms store, just for kicks. It was getting close to the time we needed to head back to the apartment to pick up our luggage, so we parted ways with the Ayers, grabbed one last slice of NY pizza, then spotted – wonder of wonders – Magnolia Bakery . . . all the way up here! Morgan and I both got cupcakes for the road then hopped in a cab back to the apartment then to LaGuardia. Home again, home again . . .
