I met up with VI for brunch and headed over to the Bastille Day Festival. Walked along all three blocks, and had some freshly squeeeezed lemonade. We ended up "paying for quality", the same way one pays for quality in the meatpacking district - we got ripped off.
Wandered into Central Park and sat on a schist outcropping for a while. Discussed impending doom or something.
Wandered out of the park over to Columbus Circle. Walked thru through the circle to get to the TimeWarner Center and AC relief when we saw some (naked) kids splashing around in the fountains. Ha!
Cooled our heels and our butts inside Whole Foods. Popped into Williams & Sonoma to look at some butcher blocks and islands where we ran into Bob & Lee (also bought some kitchen towels and the Le Creuset cookbook). Paid for some lemonade quality again at Bouchon Bakery.
Back out into the heat and Summergarden performance at MoMA. Saw JK on line, EH showed up later and we ended up sitting with AC right near the big green metal sculpture. The performance was quite good. But why is NYC full of all these foreign savages? There was a French couple behind us that wouldn't shut up and there were the two Euro girls in front of us showing way too much whale-tail and then having the gall to lie down in the middle of the walkway. I could barely contain VI's rage. I thought she would get up and throttle them at some point.
We (me, VI & AC) were pretty famished (ravished?) after the music (at least a 90 minute set) and shuffled over to Burger Joint. Thankfully it was not crowded at 10:30 on a Sunday night. It was AC's first time!
God, what time is it?
