Yankees opening game

Yesterday, we got up early and headed to the Yankee game. We had to catch a subway to the Bronx.  


It seemed a bit quiet so we went to the Hard Rock Cafe for a coffee.


The girl told us that the game had been postponed due to the bad weather!  It was an awfully rainy day and the weather looked better for the next day, when it had been postponed for.



We were disappointed but headed back to the hotel.  


We revisited some spots then decided to go to the Guggenheim museum. 


Got a taxi but he didn't know where it was so dropped us off 16 blocks away, we arrived very wet. Enjoyed the museum though.


In the evening we curled up under a blanket to warm up and played cards!


On Tuesday we took the subway back to the Yankee stadium, it was the opening game of the season. 


It was a great experience although it was freezing and the Yankees lost! 


We enjoyed it a lot  and our seats were great- thanks Chris Pelling for getting us the tickets!

  1. Pleased you got to see the game (eventually!) and that you had good seats (struck lucky there, eh?). I was following the game on t'internet - not quite the same as being there though. Enjoy the rest of your trip - you seem to have packed a lot in so far.

  2. I always thought the Bronk was a rough area, although thats probably because I watched too many films like the Warriors and The Wanderers! Hope you had a hot dog and massive carton of coke when you watched the game (although I doubt that you did!).You've obviously had a great holiday and made me really want to visit.
