NYC 2019 Saturday morning

We woke up on Saturday morning and took the subway to Delancey street on the Manhattan side of the Williamsburg bridge.  Breakfast was at Russ and Daughters where we could have ordered a flight of caviar for $150 or a boiled potato, raw onion and a shot of vodka for $18.

We walked across the bridge looking down at the cars and subway and over to the city.

  

My first purchases of the morning were prints of birds on a wire from a woman who had set up shop along the sidewalk.  Notable sites as we headed toward the city reliquary included a giant snail mural, a sidewalk appliance store,

a liquor infused ice cream shop 

and a vegetarian restaurant featuring carrot hot dogs.

The carrot dog image makes them look less than palatable but when you consider what is usually in hot dogs, anything is likely a step up.

This sign is pointing to the department of education- I've got to believe there is something amiss given that it's pointing to a junk yard.

Finally, The City Reliquary, which was actually a small collection of weird and/or old stuff from around the city.  Exlax containers, seltzer bottles, metro cards, subway tokens from across the ages.  My favorite part was the art installation.  The artist gave materials to people to use to create a three-dimensional self-portrait and made a giant neighborhood including these works.

Click the pictures to look closer if you are so inclined.  It's all so very interesting, as are the relics.

Next up- Saturday afternoon, tired feet, the Museum of Food and Drink and WonderWorld NYC.
