So I decided to stop taking the Subway to and from work to get to the PATH because the walk isn't too far and I feel like I can learn the area a lot better by walking through it rather than riding below it.
I like window shopping and listening to the hussle and bussle on New York's streets. It amazing just how many people are in the city, day in and day out!
On my walks I have also noticed the street carts of fruit every few blocks or so. Now, of course we had those in Philadelphia but they were trucks there and the vendors are on the inside and cut the fruit that you want and prepare it in a nice plastic container. Here, they are more like tables of whole fruit that you buy by the piece/bunch.
For the last week or so since I have started walking, I have (on repeat) the song from Aladdin in my head. You know the part when Aladdin is running from everyone in the town because he stole a piece of fruit? Yep, well I have that scene and song replaying constantly throughout the day at work! As soon as I pass a fruit table, I start giggling to myself (probably looking like one of the crazies) and then find myself humming the song all the way to work and then throughout the rest of the day tapping the tune with my pen or typing to the beat (okay, maybe not that - but you get my drift!).
So I apologize in advance - because I am certain that after reading this you'll have it in your head too --- but hey ---
"Let's not be too hasty. Gotta eat to live, gotta steal to eat, otherwise we'd get along!"
