First we saw a performance by Amas, a musical theatre organization that Al sits in the board of. Then we strolled from the cute little Village shops (pic) to the high-end Soho fashion stores. (pic, Prada store - where you were not allowed to take pics - exactly as seen on Sex and the City! hehehe
And restaurants and more restaurants. Then we headed to the Lower East side to see Borat (unbelivable! It's not so much that it's funny, as I was expecting, but that you just can't believe the guts he had to do all he did. Very worthy watching.) To wrap up the day, we went to John's Pizzeria (In Times Square, nothing to do with were we were, but I said I was in the mood for some good pizza). According to Al, they're one of the last places that make brick-oven pizzas here (as it should be). Though good, they owe absolutely nothing to any Sao Paulo take out/"delivery". Sigh. I was exhausted by the end of the day but it was great!
Oh we also finally got some dishes, so we can get rid of the disposable ones (ok Tati? - oh, by the way, I saw a girl on the subway that looked so much like you! I'm gonna put the pic up on flickr! hehehe)
More NYC Trivia:
- on the subway, you can exit at the same turnstiles that people get in
- they don't have 3-phase street lights, so when you're at a corner and the light is green to pedestrians it's also green to cars that are turning, it's horrible! You really have to watch out.
- I saw my first rat in the subway (on the tracks). EEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWW. (Like Erica said, I could lick Sao Paulo's subway's floor after seeing these ones here).
On Wednesday it's Valentines Day here! (I have no idea if I'm doing anything special or even if I'm buying anything for Al - specially cause his birthday is in a few days too - but I thought it was worthy the mention...)

Você pode se considerar uma novaiorquina a partir do momento em que começar a achar ratos a coisa mais normal do mundo, hehehehe.
Eu corria dos ratos no metro de NY, era terrível! De repente eles apareciam na borda da plataforma, com aquela carinha meiga e aqueles olhinhos pretinhos ;)
Que legal que vc foi no Village! É muito bonitinho por lá, né?
Cada vez eu acho que sou a pessoa mais ordinaria deste mundo. Deve ser a 30a. vez que me falam que viram alguem parecida comigo. E em todas as vezes que eu pude checar, eu achei que nao tinha nada a ver, hehe. Mas falando serio, perdeu a graca jah. Eu tenho a cara mais comum deste mundo!! Buaaaaaaaaaa, buaaaaaaaaaa!!!!
Que nojo esses ratos. E as baratas, jah viu alguma? Ouvi falar que as americanas sao maiores. Acho que tem que esperar o verao chegar pra ver a carinha delas. Eca!
Credo!!! Não sou uma pessoa mto fresca, mas conviver harmoniosamente com ratos é mto pra mim....
