Not so..Hot..Humid...Hazy

Well, the weather is finally starting to cooperate. It got a little cooler during the day. It was still muggy, but cooler.

Yesterday morning, Celena and I went to her college. Before getting there, we stopped by a sports restaurant/bar near her school and ordered breakfast. A lot of the Columbia students frequent this bar after school and, maybe, during school time. I took a guided tour of her school. The building and class rooms are very old style, lots of brick and wood. Reminds me of my grammar school days in Chicago, when I had to take a horse and buggy to school, just kidding, or am I.

Late in the afternoon we went to Chinatown and had dinner. We also took a walk through the streets to check out the merchandise that was on sale. Lots of merchants offering all kinds of deals on watches, jewelry, Cd's and handbags.

After Chinatown, we went back near her apartment to a sports bar to see, if by chance, they would have the Bears/Packers game. Initially, they had the world series on, but as the night progressed, I spotted 1, 2, a dozen and maybe more than 2 dozen Bear fans walk in and before long, the world series was off and the Bear game on. Very cool. It was a good night, the Bears beat the Packers.

Sign says it all.

Teachers collage takes up the whole block plus some.

Saw this sign near the campus.

Yet, another shot of the subway.
