greg and i walked to chinatown this evening to meet friends for dinner at hop kee restaurant.
we walked along sixth avenue to church street and then turned onto franklin, walked through collect pond park to centre street and then along hogan place to columbus park, which we walked through to mosco street which took us to mott street. the photo above is looking across columbus park playground to the old five points neighborhood.
mosco and mulberry streets . .
hop kee restaurant is on the right and down the stairs . . we had spring rolls, chicken with cashews and chinese broccoli in oyster sauce . . and tea. it was all very good.
walking home . .
through little italy . .
my neighbor said she walked 20,000 steps today . . !
I would love to wander the New York streets again
ReplyDeleteI am 60 in January - Jake, Rosie and I are thinking of flying in for a few days
Siobhan x
That is very exciting! Are you thinking for January? For your birthday?
DeleteOr earlier?
DeleteIt would be for my birthday - I celebrated my 40th and 50th birthdays in New York too x
ReplyDeleteThat sounds wonderful Siobhan. As you plan it, email me. It would be nice to see you, Jake and Rosie.
DeleteSo sad there is graffiti on that one building. Veronika and Peter also walked over 20,000 steps in Chicago each day. I think my legs would hurt after so many steps.
ReplyDeleteYes, very tiring! But I think a person must sleep well afterwards.
DeleteAlthough sometimes you are so tired that you cannot sleep at all after strenuous exercise.
DeleteYes, we need time to calm down then . . Korrina has that problem when she gets home from work so late at night . . all the hustle of quickly preparing food and then the trip home . . it takes her awhile to quiet down.
DeleteI believe that! I once worked at McDonald's in Germany for a month (the only place to get a summer job in our town). I had the night shift and when I was finally home around midnight, I could not fall asleep. I worked at the cash register most of the time and even when I was home I thought I was entering items into the cash register! It was awful! I could not relax.
DeleteI used to work in a restaurant and would also have funny dreams like that . . !
DeleteMaybe all sensitive people do that.
DeleteHow funny dreams can be!
