New York City – Day 4  (Today…)
 

Today it rained … and rained … and rained.


Today it was an hour on the subway from China Town to the Bronx.

Today it was breathtaking beauty of orchids and other flora at the New York Botanical Gardens in the Bronx ... More flowers!









Of course there was the usual walking and eating and eating and walking with a Broadway show and an after show bite at Guy Fieri’s “Guy’s New York." The reviews were right on, “Ho, hum!”
And today ... I decided, I really don’t like being wet.

  2. Bummer it decided to rain on your parade, but those flowers sure are gorgeous. I bet they brightened the day.

    1. I guess a little rain makes you appreciate the days that it doesn't ... the only sad thing - it wasn't a great day to enjoy the outdoor part of the Botanical Gardens.

    Glad to see you are still having fun in spite of being wet. Enjoy your time there.

    You mean . . . Guy's place is only "ho hum" ? I look at Diners, Dives all the time. I guess today it's back to that food truck

    1. Bob, here's the low down on Guy's place: my fork was dirty, my glass was dirty, the washroom, unattended to, the food was cold and they mixed up the bill big time all the while suggesting (on the bill) a 20% tip. The food truck still gets my vote.

  4. Love the all the photos from the Garden.

    I don't like being wet, either.

    1. Thanks Circle Blue - and that was just the inside (took 174 photos). I can't imagine what the outside (whole garden) would have to offer on a spring day when it isn't raining.

  5. Very nice flower photos. I am not a real fan of Guy Fieri's dishes byt I do like his personality. I.e. Diners, Drive Ins and Dives is a great show but the ones where he actually cooks, les so. Lots of personality...

    1. Thanks Richard - I think I have to agree, Guy's show is fun to watch, he's got me watching out for the places he's featured everywhere I go - that's his strength for sure.
