Day one NYC 05.26.13
Day one. 05.26.13 Got on the plane also, the bike in the bag worked perfectly (got it on for 25 bucks) got my seat changed to another row and it worked out great. I met another traveller named sarah who was from Australia and was going to NYC by way of the Southern California desserts. She too had no plans whatsoever and we followed the other woman in our row to the fly away trains. Then I got to the NYC subway and not 3 minutes into my first ride … The neck on my uke gets snapped!! I try to not let it bother me but it definitly SUCKED. Then my train buddy tells me she is an architect And offers me clamps and some wood glue. Fast forward to Brooklyn . I was drinking free beer and working on my bike and fixing the uke. The city was booming since Sunday wasn’t Sunday this week ( Memorial Day) I bet peoe are getting wasted in jersey. I finish and realize I have the wrong size tire…and no shops are open . So I get drinks thanks to Clarence and get drunk and do the Brooklyn roof thing. Couldn’t stay there too long because I had to see the city proper… I’m not sure how to explain this… But I got a free room to crash in at the Marriott. It’s crazy swank And I feel like I’m the slickest talker everrrr.
