Then Sam went running ,6.25miles (all the way to 42nd st), I did some emailing, then we decided to have some sushi for lunch, we have so far failed to find any good and affordable Sushi! There is no equivalent of the London chain of Wasabi which was my recluse after a ballet class at Danceworks!! So we headed to somewhere called Ruby Foo's, a pan-asian resturant in Times Sq. Still wasn't the best, but then we were spoilt for choice with Akari right on our doorstep in Islington. We had some gyoza, some chicken teriaki things and tuna/salmon rolls... it was ok, until they fobbed us off for some kind of pork dumping and pretended it was chicken teriaki! Anyway moving on we heading to the MoMa (Museum of Modern Art) as it's free from 4pm on a Friday!
The MoMa is in midtown Manhattan and houses a lot of modern art, The museum's collection offers an unparalleled overview of modern and contemporary art,including works of architecture and design, drawings, painting, sculpture, photography, prints, illustrated books and artist's books,film, and electronic media.
It was great to see paintings that I studied at school and Sam was pretty interested to! Some of our faves and some classics are below....
Water Lilies- Monet
Starry Night- Van Gogh
Andy Warholl
Jasper John - American Flag
The sun was beginning to set as we wandered the many floors of the museum, all with windows that looked out upon Manhattan, which had finally stopped raining!
Sam then suggested we went on got IceCream...well something called Tasty D- lite...a slightly healthier option to ice cream similar to Mr Whippy! Something Charlotte loves in Sex and the City, so today instead of being Carrie, I became Charlotte!
