Day Six in NYC - 9/26

We slept in again today as a cold front came in last night and it was quite cold and windy. Late morning we headed back down to Greenwich Village and I took one final class at Yamuna's studio. Ben strolled around the village and people watched while I was in class, then we headed over to Exilar juice bar for a quick greens juice and then Le Pain Quotidien where I picked up a black bean hummus sandwhich. We then headed towards the Chelsea High Line. The High Line was originally constructed in the 1930s, to lift dangerous freight trains off Manhattan's streets. When all sections are complete, the High Line will be a mile-and-a-half-long elevated park, running through the West Side neighborhoods of the Meatpacking District, West Chelsea and Clinton/Hell's Kitchen.

We headed back to the apartment to get ready to leave.



After our whiplash taxi ride from the airport into the city on Monday, we ended up hiring a car and driver and floated to catch our plane in the back of a BMW sedan. A great way to end our vacation.
