Day 7

Sooooo much shopping...geez! We took the subway to Columbus Circle and Lincoln Center and cruised around for an hour before heading a little further downtown to 23rd Street. We basically stayed on the right side of the street and walked all the way down to Canal Street which took about 3 hours. Amazingly we didn't buy anything but boy was it tempting. Shop after shop after shop after shop....antiques, clothing, used records etc. Everything you can possibly imagine was there. By about 5:15 we were exhausted and decided to head over to Brooklyn a little bit early and walk around there a bit before heading to Chris' house. Williamsburg, Brooklyn is an up and coming area in the city and Bedford Avenue is packed with cool jewelry stores, vintage clothing shops etc and it was fun to cruise around there. There is also a great store called Brooklyn Industries but yet again we showed some restraint and left without any damage being done.

We got to Chris' at 700. His fiancee Michelle is a wonderful person and their new place is absolutely gorgeous. A quaint little 1 bedroom place decorated perfectly. True to Tarry's from he showed me the new projection TV system that he has. Everytime I see that guy he costs me at least $1000. He's the guy that made me buy the iMac, the Palm Pilot, the Treo phone. The coolest thing about the projection tv is that Alana really dug it so who knows. We may be watching the Canucks lose at our place before you know it.

Chris made a great dinner and we just hung out and talked and drank wine. It was a great hang with 2 great people.

Today, its raining, we're watching talk shows and killing time before heading to the Yankees game tonight. Yahoo....
