Sunday, Rainy Sunday

Sunday turned out to be quite an interesting day in New York City. The rain that we were expecting turned out to be New York's largest recorded rain --8 inches in the city!

The city suddenly didn't seem quite as tall, since you couldn't even see the tops of the buildings!

Although most of the people of New York City stayed indoors, it didn't stop us from taking advantage of our last full day in New York. We took our first trip on the New York Subway system to get the day started.

We took the 4- train to the Bronx...home of Yankee Stadium. After a wet walk around the stadium, we found out that the tour of Yankee Stadium we had scheduled had been cancelled due to the rain. None the less, we took pictures to prove that we were there!

We then came back to the city for lunch (and dessert) in Little Italy. Afterwards, we took a break at the hotel to dry off. Then we ventured out more for some shopping on 5th Avenue. As you can see...the drying off didn't help for very long!

After another "dry-off" break, we headed to dinner at "Wolfgang's". We ate really well everywhere that we went, however, the Chocolate Cake at Wolfgang's really took the cake! We had such a great time in New York and look forward to going back again!
