Greenwich Village

Today was a day of rest - sort of. We caught the subway to Greenwich village and walked for about 4 hours exploring the area, especially the shops :) Cannot tell you how excited I was to find a Crumbs cupcake shop and celebrated with a red velvet cupcake. I didn't take the camera with me today so this is an 'official photo'

Seriously good, having now had a 'few cupcakes' I am of the belief that Crumbs are the best.

After Greenwich we walked back to Soho in search of a few odds and ends and then came back to the hotel for a refreshing cup of tea and would you believe it .... a cupcake!!

Tonight we are off to see George's brother's The Kin play. Very excited about this. Apart from singing well they are such lovely, lovely boys.

Ingrid and I are now quite proficient at the subway, we have only jumped on the wrong train once. We have been well entertained on many rides with all sorts of singing, musical instruments and sad stories. We have yet to have a rapper which is disappointing.

Tomorrow we are off to Brooklyn for Smorgasbord to make sure we have covered all food types. My travel partner is then deserting me(:() and I am off to stay with Stef and George and Monte. 

I can say, quite honestly and without exaggeration Ingrid and I walked and shopped till we dropped. Because of malfunctioning   pedometers (plural) we have no idea how far we walked buy man it was a LOOOOONNNNNGGGG way!!!
