NYC Destinations: High Line, Chelsea market and Williamsburg







Dunkle, we love the Abingdon Guest House because of the west village location and price. and it doesn't hurt that the chocolate bar is right next door. every morning either Nanc or i ventured out first thing and bought lattes and mochas to get us up and out. on Saturday, our last day, i'd read about the High Line park and really wanted to see it first hand. i wasn't disappointed. it's a park built in the sky on the skeleton of the old elevated rail system that serviced the meat markets. see pics below.











we started at the south end and exited the stairs at the north end. we found ourselves at the Chelsea market. our buddy mel had taken us there years ago when it first opened. i'd forgotten how fun it is - especially if you're hungry.











we then hopped the subway, because you always have to ride the subway in NY, and took the very long way to Brooklyn. Willaimsburg to be exact. it was a little sketchy for us. the good stuff was here and there but not all in one place.
