On the agenda for Day 2 was to meet up with Leslie around 3. We met up at Brooklyn Bridge Park station and off we went to the High Line which is a decommissioned train line that has been transformed into a green space. Before that we stopped for Thai at a nice little spot she knew. I felt like such a local. During conversation I mentioned that I had never been up the Empire State Building. Pretty bland statement I thought. Well, unbeknownst to me(thank you autocorrect) she texted her sister who works at the ESB and after the High Wire(which was gorgeous) she took me up the Empire State Building. I was blown away by her generosity and am extremely thankful for the opportunity to do that. What would a trip of mine be without an eyes closed picture of me from a world famous locale?
Anyway, it was great to spend time with Leslie and see her in her hometown.
After I left her I went to Las' Lap in the lower east side. This spot is owned by none other than SoCal transplant Bryce Sheldon, the former University of South Carolina hooper. It was great to see him and meet his friends. All great people. Great, chill spot.
Almost 17 miles later, I hit the sack back at the Hampton Inn near the Brooklyn bridge.
