2009/10/30 some more views

since numerous people recommended to go see chinatown, we did so; indeed, it was quite an experience. a whole bunch of cheap crap on every corner and millions of invasive chinese women offering "bags, rolex, dvd dvd dvd..".

considering my circumstances and my current incapability of coping with stress, we decided to have a quick - incredibly cheap - bite and escape this sensory overload.


we went back downtown, passing city hall [where jefferson supporters protested against the current mayor bloomberg]..

..the courthouse and the financial district.


once again, we passed ground zero and were able to catch a few glimpses of the construction site. although 09/11 happened over 8 years ago, this place still gives you [or at least gave me] the chills.

after a little nap at home, we went back to manhattan to see the city by night.. from the top of the empire state building.

later on we lingered along 5th avenue..


..to quickly stop by at bloomingdale's, where i could acquire my very first 'little brown bag'.


we had dinner at junior's in brooklyn, the place where the sell the best cheesecake in the world.. an yeah, they do!
