Day 107: New York City
September 10: Another relaxing morning, then met up with Beth and her friend, Lisa. Lisa was in town for her brother-in-law's financee's bridal shower, but she also needed to go shopping to find a dress for that wedding in October. After shopping at all the exclusive places - including Sake 5th Ave, Bloomingdales and Bergdorf Goodman, her mission was a success!
Beth and I had a fun day... shopping on 5th Ave (saw a Labour Day parade too) and 34th Street. Spent hours in Victoria Secret too!
We then headed back uptown to meet up with Lisa, and then rest for a little while.
I returned to my (friend's) apartment to watch the women's final (tennis) on TV. Kim Clijsters played against Mary Pierce and won in two sets... her first grand slam title - very happy for her!
In the evening, caught up with Beth and Lisa for dinner. Ate in. Was then meant to meet up with Morris, but we got our wires crossed. I ended up meeting some strangers off the street, including two gorgeous models who were friends of friends. Four of us ended up dancing the night away. We went to the Hudson Hotel (58th/9th Ave - recommended by a friend of mine), Cellar Bar (near Bryant Park) and Vento (near Hudson/14th Sts).
Late night, but loads of fun! Finally... I got to see what the nightlife is all about.
