Day 23. It’s probably not a good idea staying up till the wee hours, watching the reaction to game 5 of the NBA finals on five different sports channels. A little tired today. 9/11 - Ground Zero. We couldn’t get a better morning to come here, the sun was shining and the heat was on. I think this was our hottest day in NYC so far. Getting into ground zero is a bit of a process. You wait in line to get a ticket, its free but they have a donation box right where you grab your tickets from. So you feel obligated to hand over some cash anyway, especially when a sign say 5 bucks per person should suffice. Then you go through a security screening similar to the one you would get at an international airport. Once you’ve pass that you are good to go. I did not feel as sad this time round. It’s packed with people, mostly tourist, some feeling the emotion of this place. Trying to explain to Kiyana what happen here was a struggle, she seemed confused as to why someone would do that. The pools are still massively epic and beautiful. Kiyana could not get over the size of them and seeing all the names of those who passed here is till a little haunting. We were back at our hotel before 12. Nana nap time. Ha. Kobeyaki - 293 7th Ave, New York NY 10001 If you are ever in New York, come to this place. Best burger in the city and it’s a Japanese restaurant. The food is fresh and tasty and feels healthier than most New York joints. A must visit if you are lucky enough to be coming here. For dessert went uptown to Serendipity 3 and had to wait 45 minutes just to get a table. Lisa didn’t mind the wait so I was hoping it would live up to expectations. The Outrageous Banana Split is a beast and so it should be for 22 bucks. But man it was so damm tasty. It had about 6 scoops of ice cream in a variety of flavors, Hot fudge, chocolate sauce, peanut butter sauce, berry sauce, honey sauce, walnuts, peanuts, sprinkles banana and whip cream. Kiyana and I shared, but could not finish it. It was so much I started to feel sick. But so yummy I kept going in for more.
