Here we are in day 3, and today is the first day of rain...not much rain, but again, we are competing with The Donald...and gawd knows it's rainin' for him!  As I said yesterday, we were going down to Tribeca to find three legged tables.  We have been traveling on the subway...a real easy way to get lost it turns out!  So on our first attempt to get lost, we ran into the coolest little fella in NYC...don't know his name, but he was stylin'!
TLD: That is the coolest haircut I've ever seen!  Do you think I should get my hair cut that way?
Cool kid:  No way!
TLD:  Where did you get that jacket...I want one just like it...don't you think I'd look cool in a jacket like that?
Cool kid:  No.....why is your hair so white?  (His mother almost swallows her tongue at this remark)
TLD:  Well, I'm old...that's what happens when you get old.
Cool kid:  This is my Ninja Turtle...he could beat you up!  (Mother is laughing hysterically)
TLD:  Well I'm famous ya know!
Cool kid:  Not here!
Hmmmmmmmmmmm...no wonder this kid's name is trouble!  I thought I'd better escape before the Cool kid kicked my ass!  Off we went to Katz's deli...what a madhouse!  Katz's is where they filmed the orgasm scene from When Harry met Sally...these 3 women had ordered everything on the menu hoping to get what Sally had...
They didn't get the right items obviously...Anyway, here is an overview of the deli...
I didn't see him, but obviously Charlie Brown was there and here is his kid...
The portions at Katz's are huge...even by American standards.  I may not have to eat until I get back to Vancouver next week!  The rain got bad, so we postponed our three legged table odyssey for another day...but not before we saw this very ornate building...
 ...and stopped in a gallery to see somebody's rusty submarine...
...and just as we were about to get into the subway, we saw some architects tantrum with building blocks...
Cassandra tells me the penthouse goes for $50 million...anyone interested?

  1. An old strange white guy talking to little kids in NYC.....no way THAT could go wrong!

    Also, that's not a submarine. It's a turn of the century prototype sex toy!

    The picture of that ornate building is fabulous.
