One last day of NYC fun before going home.
A main challenge on this trip was cleaning all of our meth lab of milk pumping implements about 50 times.
Ern was back home anxiously awaiting our arrival.
Lombardi’s claims to be America's first pizzeria. I felt that that earned a visit. Turns out they closed for a decade then reopened in a different location so it wasn't the historic Mecca of a location I had thought it was but it was still fun.
Meanwhile Ern was in Kirkland not napping.
At the NYC Museum of Ice Cream you can eat unlimited ice cream and do other fun activities age appropriate for adult males. Once upon a time I was considering booking Lydia a surprise trip to see the location in Los Angeles and... I'm glad we got to see it but also glad I didn't go somewhere just for that purpose.
This was fun because there were numerous different types of ice cream to try. So much in fact that I don't think I ever had a second helping of any one thing.
I thought the areas about the history of ice cream were cool. To be clear though, this was not really a museum as much as an Instagram post that came to life.
Not ice cream but I made an exception.
Seago is apparently into fancy blue jeans places. I accompanied him to one or two. Some customers in there were very serious about denim. Like head to toe denim with I assume denim underwear. No one would let me check.
I was very excited to visit Hook & Ladder Company 8's firehouse. In addition to still being an active firehouse since 1903 it is also used in exterior shots as the headquarters in the Ghostbusters movies. I was a little bit disappointed that it had temporarily lost its classic look in favor of an advertisement for Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, but it was pretty cool either way.
Brrr
Back at JFK we hit the Sapphire Lounge. It was fancier than a typical US lounge.
There was a digital ordering system which was pretty advanced.
I finally got around to watching Oppenheimer. There's nothing better than a nice long movie when you're on a flight.
