Day 2: Chinatown and Little Italy

Next stop was Chinatown to do a little shopping around. It was a different world when we stepped out of the subway station onto Canal Street. There were people everywhere and there were shops everywhere!!! We did quite of bit of looking, a little buying, and Keifer tried his hand out at bargaining with the shop owners! It was definitely an experience!!!

See what I mean about people and shops everywhere!
This was a Starbucks!!!

We drank more Starbucks on this trip than we ever have before! I love their Signature Hot Chocolate and Kolby usually gets a Caramel Macchiato but they had their holiday specials going and he discovered the Caramel Brulee Latte.

We then headed north across Canal Street and took a walking tour of Little Italy. It was so pretty and quaint. It felt like we were in Italy (not that we've ever been there *wink*) but it was so nice.

While we were there, we decided to grab some authetic Italian food for lunch. Oh my gosh, it was so delicious. I had fettecini alfredo, the guys had some giant calzones, and Penny and Grandma had some type of Italian soup that was the restaraunt's special. This little place is where we grabbed lunch!
