    Can we go to Greenwich Village?

    Up silly early but thankfully not too tired. We managed to (mostly) avoid seeing anyone in our shared apartment and headed out onto the train towards the west village. Highlights we’re seeing a pug in an ikea bag. Lowlights were it was pretty stuffy. We got off at the High Line and walked along snapping the streets below us and playing how many yellow taxis can you see. We then went to Chelsea market and grabbed some bagels which we ate in the square outside before walking through Greenwich Village to get to the Color Factory, an interactive, immersive pop up of pure colourful fun. After eating free ice cream and knobbing around in a giant ball pit we headed over to MOMA to fool ourselves into thinking we are cultural. We definitely made the right choice by starting at the top as that it where all the big dogs are. We saw Andy Warhol, Picasso, Van Gogh and Jackson Pollock before feeling a bit arted out. We then strolled through 5th Avenue stopping at St Patrick’s and Grand Central Station (for a look and much needed snacks) Then it was onto Carragher’s where Phil lived his best life rewatching Liverpool beat Tottenham and getting to hold a trophy. 3 pints in and we were starving to since we were near Koreatown we found a really nice Korean restaurant called Barn Joo 35. Then it was on the train again and back to BrooklynRead more
