The first goal now is the ferry to Staten Island is a great way to see the Statue of Liberty from the sea without paying, the ferry is free and goes very often, there are several observation decks and just to take pictures.
Unfortunately, the morning the sun was on the wrong side, and nearly all photos were against the ... but this would have happened even with a specialized tour in the Statue of Liberty.
One comment: the statue is small, much more smaller than one might expect.
island in itself is not anything interesting, let's take a good hot dog and pretzel-off again straight for Manhattan.
decide to visit China Town: it is less organized than the version of San Francisco, but there are so many basements where women in fact, it can hide snake [see Big Trouble in Little China Town].
There are shops of all types, including fish shops that keep live fish and shellfish.
also passed through Little Italy, which is really small and almost completely absorbed by China Town.
For lunch we go to Times Square, looking for the mystical --- Bumba Gump restaurant chain that sells pretty much just looking for a fancy shrimp reference to the movie "Forrest Gump."
Price is not the cheapest, but the portions are huge and the location is great, overlooking Times Square.
After a gourmet blowout we go to B & H to buy something, but are still closed: Friday close before, and of course Saturday is closed.
we give up and go to the MoMa, admission is free Friday afternoon (1600-2000), and we take advantage.
The most interesting thing is that this wire is in equilibrium between two fans, the rest is rather disappointing, except for several well-known painters in the latest plans.
certainly struck by the fact that a large untapped area of \u200b\u200bthe museum ...
Another interesting thing: there is a large room with a microphone and speakers where anyone can go and screamed.
Nicola course it does, and so now you can say I did art at MoMA :-)
shop outside the MoMA is a much pleasant, there are so many weird things, interesting and not too expensive, certainly deserves it.
Fed go to Rockefeller Center, where we climb on the top floor of the skyscraper, the ticket costs $ 21 but well worth: there is a row (as opposed to the Empire) and the view is almost the same.
At the top is a room with a ceiling-light interactive, and several boys and girls are having fun creating a mini festival.
went down in record time from the tower we go rendezvous with friends, the original pub is full, it is folded in a nearby bar ("Bus Stop "- near Washington Square) where we eat well and not for long.
After dinner we return again on the fifth to take things from A & F but it is closed, then we move to the Apple Store to allow Andrea to take even a little bit.
Tired take the metro to go home, to the well-deserved rest.
