New Jersey Day 7...My last full day :-(

I woke up that morning feeling really sad, but I wasnt going to let it dampen my day.  I had a lunch date with my favorite musician Matt Beck so I was ust going to enjoy the day.  I walked down to the light rail and took the same path I had taken the day before. I went up the 72nd subway stop and waited for Matt.  We met over on Columbus at the Columbus Tavern.  Great mac & Cheese.

Its always nice to be able to just sit and hang out with Matt.  Talk about kids and shows and tours and New York. We talked about my wanting to move to the East Coast and his Spidey break.  Just a good hang!

After lunch with Matt I headed over to Luke's Lobster to get some sandwiches for later. Also stopped at Insomnia Cookies for some take homes. No trip would be complete without a trip to Starbucks so i sat there and watched the city for a bit.

I caught the train down to the World Trade Center to see the progress they were making.  So different from the last time I was there.  Its set to open in September, must get back to see it. Lastly I headed to Times Square because Alyssa needed something from the toy store.  What the hell was I thinking! I wanted to start knocking kids around the second I got there...UGH!

My final trip in New York was to the Darby to meet Viv and Jenny.  It was a quite night there so it was great to just hang out. Made me sad about leaving a funk I am still having trouble shaking.

When we got home I completed the packing process because I was leaving in the next day.
