Taking the subway to Hoboken


After doing a little retail therapy in the shape of Macy's and of course my personal favourites K-Mart and Duane Reade we made out way back to the hotel to get ready for the evening.

The rain turned into a full-on storm - it was by about 6pm pouring with rain.

After riding the tube (ooop I mean the PATH) to Hoboken to meet two of our colleagues from the company in the US (Dave and Dave) we went to a bar (Texas Arizona) which was amazingly similar to any UK bar on a Friday night - had a few drinks and went onto Arthurs Steakhouse - much to everyones amazement I didnt have a steak and when they came out I was pleased I opted for a sandwich - they were HUGE!!!! But looked gorgeous!

Hoboken looked really nice and so much more small town than Manhattan - wouldnt mind exploring it a little more. From what we saw there are loads of bars, restaurants and niche shops - a little like Tiburon in that its away from the big city feel but near enough to be accessible.

After having a truly awesome evening by which time I looked as if I had a full afro - it was incredibly humid - we travelled back on the path, returned to the Hotel and fell asleep as soon as my head touched the pillow.
