June 20. Today was the first day my friend and I got to tour the city. And I was the tour guide. I did okay if I must say. Which I must. We went to breakfast at the Barking Dog, that I had been to before. I discovered that it was not in Sex and the City though, only the t-shirt from the restaurant is in an episode. Not the same in my opinion. After breakfast we went to the Gugg to just look at the inside, then went to the Met. After a few hours at the met, and getting to see somethings that I had not seen the last time I visited we walked 5th Avenue for a little while to pop in and out of stores to escape the heat. We then purchased tickets to Top of the Rock. Came back home and rested for a bit and then took a cab downtown to Rockefeller Center. Due to the downtown trains being out of order for some preposterous reason. After we made it to the Rock, barely, we headed to the top. Took loads of photos, since we went up when it was still light out, and stayed to watch the sunset. A nice time to relax. Unfortunately they did not have proper seating, but what we found sufficed for the nearly two hours that we waited. After the Rock, we went to Time Square. Considered going to a movie in a proper theater and we deterred by the time. Considering we ate only once so far we were rather hungry, so we made our way to none other than the American Classic... Olive Garden. And at the stories high, one must wonder if that is really all the necessary. After dinner we went home and made it to bed at a reasonable hour. Off to rest and recuperate for another day.
