Day 15- What do you do on a Rainy Day in NYC?


Step 1 When it rains in NYC meet up with a friend in Union Square and within a couple blocks you will find all you need for your afternoon festivities.  
Step 2 At 12:30 pm go around the corner to the movie theater and purchase tickets for a 3pm matinee.  That way you have your tickets since on a rainy day everyone thinks a movie is the best idea.  
Step 3 Next, find the nearest nail salon shop and get pedicures.  The foot massage is nice for tired out feet and the bright colors on your toes will remind you of summer even when it is dark and cloudy outside.  It is, also, a great way to catch up with your friend about the week and her study abroad adventures.
Step 4 Go across the street to Cosi for a T.M.B. (tomato, mozzarella, basil) sandwich, yummy!
Step 5 Head over to the theater to watch the movie.  Today, we chose "Away We go"  it was a very fun movie that reminds everyone the importance of teamwork in any relationship.  On a side note every seat in the theater was filled.
Step 6 The movie gets out at 5pm so you still have plenty of time to do something else during the day.  We went to get groceries at Trader Joe's before separating for the day.  The rest of my day I was spent organizing my apartment, doing laundry, cooking dinner and watching a movie.  Not the most exciting Saturday night but very relaxing and nice to catch up from the busy week.  Hopefully, tomorrow will be nice and I will be able to do some fun outdoor NYC activities.  However, I see no sunshine within the next 5-day forecast, bummer.

That's the NW Spirit! Looks like you had a great day exploring the options in NYC. So many great things to do and all without ever jumping into a car :-)
