As I've mentioned previously, John and I are preparing to leave New York in a few months (I have a love/hate relationship with this decision, but for many reasons, it's time to move on and try something new). Despite having lived here for almost four years, there are still a number of things to check of my "list" before we go. We come up with new ones all the time, but here are some of the few that are currently at the top:
1.) Picnic in
Central Park
2.) Visit the animals at the
Bronx Zoo
3.) Visit the dinosaurs at the
Musem of Natural History
4.) Try the famous frozen hot chocolate at
Serendipity 3
5.) Attend a few more Broadway shows -
Rock of Ages and
Memphis are priorities.
6.) Skate on the ice at
Rockefeller Center
7.) Have a pastrami sandwich at
Katz's Deli - must watch When Harry Met Sally beforehand.
8.) Hang out in the park at Union Square and then eat something chocolately at
Max Brenner - John is a chocoholic and has never been.
9.) Attend a live show at
SNL
10.) Watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade balloons being blown up the night before in Central Park.
11.) Stroll around
Coney Island
12.) Share a giant sandwich at
Carnegie Deli
13.) Attend a movie at
Lincoln Center - I've been told it still exudes the 1920's-30's.
14.) Make one last trip to the Meatpacking District spot we met at.
