Tell ya what...we're doing a Brokie Brunch in NYC

<< < (28/72) > >>

David:
Jeff:   Yes, I'm coming in on Amtrak #195 into Penn Station.   

It is just over a mile from the Brunch site I believe.   Penn Station is on 8th Ave which runs south right down to Hudson  street.  About a block from 10th Ave where Cowgirl is I think.    We could walk the mile or so, or take a cab.   I don't like the NY subway system.   I've seen too many bad movies I guess!   LOL.


I know that Anke (Pipedream) wanted to see some of NY too.   After Brunch I was thinking we could head back up towards Penn Station, then go East 3 blocks to the Empire State Building,  Macys,  Times Square is impressive too.     

That would also put us near the Train station to catch our respective return trains as well.   Mine leaves at 8:00 pm.

I will reconfirm the reservation this week as requested.

For those arriving from Penn Station, if you don't want to cab it, the subway is incredibly safe - I take it every weekday, heck, Heath takes it to and from Brooklyn all the time.   ;D

Take the A, C, or E lines, located in Penn Station to the West 4th Street Station. Walk on West 4th Street and cross 7th Avenue going WEST to West 10th Street (make sure you ask someone which way is west, the West Village can be a bit confusing if you don't know it). Take West 10th Street to Hudson Street. Cowgirl is on the north-west corner of Hudson Street and West 10th Street (not 10th Avenue).   

Jeff Wrangler:
We can play it by ear, I guess. If the weather is nice, it might be nice to walk it. It's been a dozen years at least, but I bet if I started from the intersection of Greenwich and Christopher I could still find my way around the West Village.

I'm probably going to see if I can get a train around 8 p.m. also. And I have a personal mission to check out the Leatherman, on Christopher Street, while I'm so close. There are ... er ... some things I need. ...  ;)

Meryl:
Jeff and David, you can also take the Number 1 train on the IRT down to Christopher Street and be quite close to our brunch site.  :D

Amy, thanks for confirming the reservation!  :)

Jeff Wrangler:
Yeehaw! This is happening! I just made my train reservation!

Arriving Penn Station, train #644, 10:56 a.m.

I decided to return to Philadelphia a little early.

Departing Penn Station, train #135, 6:05 p.m.

(That's probably about all the New York I can handle at this point!)

And Hoboken Jeff tells me I can grits at the Cowgirl! Yeehaw! :D
