After a nine hour red-eye flight (without much sleep for any of us), a ride on the air train to Jamaica station, a transfer to the “f” metro line, a ride on the “f” train to 2nd ave, and then a a one mile walk, we finally arrived at our friend Lars' house in the east village, NYC.
And, while we were a bit hungry, we were so tired, that we decided to have a 2-hour power nap… such a good idea! The nap was just enough of a recharge to make it so we were able to go out for an adventure. With no real plans but a dinner venue and a general idea where Trader Joe’s was, we ventured out. In the end, we stopped at a few pretty small but fun playgrounds, made it to a new (to us) Trader Joe’s for lunch, found a super cool playground in battery park, rode the Staten Island ferry and saw the statue of liberty, and made it to one of our favorite restaurants of all time, Ippudo.
Finally, we stopped at a vegan ice cream place for some ice cream cones and the best ice cream any one of us has ever had.
Our night ended with us all cozied up in bed at 9pm with very droopy eyes and happy tummies and hearts.
