Big City, Big Adventures, Big Laughs

New York is the setting. Finding the best pizza slice is the plot. Bret, Sam and myself are the stars.

My first day in New York was like a movie. We were walking through the city with big eyes and bigger appetites. The three of us felt like Ferris Buehler type characters. It is hard to be in New York City for the first time and not feel like you are in a movie. I was expecting to see actors everywhere, because the NYC i know is the one from TV and Movies. I had a great two days in New York, the apartment we stayed in was the size of a queen bed, and i had no desire to set foot in the shower, even though i was sweaty and sticky from the thick humid 90 degree air. The smells in the city were overwhelming; the subway, the pizza joints, the cigarettes, the exhaust, and don't forget Chinatown. But perhaps the worst smell of the trip so far was the restrooms on the 11 hour train ride from NY to Montreal. 

Imagine the urine of someone whose diet consists entirely of canned Tuna. It was bad. One of the worst of all-time, i put it on my list of top five terrible smells. 

Back to NYC, perhaps the best part was just hanging out with Bret and Sam. The food was good, the people were interesting, the smells were terrible, but the company was hilarious, we had one-another laughing at everything. We would sit on the Corner of N 7th in Brooklyn at the N7 Market and just comment on everything around us. Definitely a; "you had to be there" situation. I will share more pictures later.
