Yesterday we went for breakfast at Clinton Street Bakery, a place that Plan 9 had recommended as the place they aspire to be. It was pancake week there, so I had apple pancakes with walnuts and maple syrup.

I also had a maple butter pecan milkshake which was soooo good.

To burn off breakfast, we decided to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge.

It was such a clear day and you could see for miles.

On one side of the bridge we could see the Statue Of Liberty…

and on the other, our future home – the dream clock tower penthouse. It looks sooooo pretty.

We then hoped on the subway to somewhere I’ve always wanted to go… Coney Island!

It was even weirder in the snow, as the boardwalk was completely deserted.

The fun fair doesn’t reopen until March but it was still fun to see.

I wished we could have seen Shoot The Freak, “with live human targets”.

Tom made a snow angel on the beach.

I managed to buy a Coney Island mermaid tshirt, which I can wear with my tail to Mardis Gras.

We warmed up in Nathan’s, which turned out to be quite a famous cafe.

Tom ordered more root beer than we could drink and that was only the medium size.

We headed back to Manhattan and decided to go up the Rockerfeller centre to see the view.

We were advised to go up here instead as we’d get a nice view with the Empire State Building.

You could see all the way to Coney Island on this side.

And all down Central Park to The Bronx on the other.

We stayed for an hour so we could watch the sunset.

The city lit up and looked so pretty at night.

Afterwards we went on the hunt for food in Times Square.

We found an awesome place with the tagline “we cure our own corn beef, our chicken soup cures everything else”!
