Dumbo

Travelled by Water Taxi to Dumbo (an acronym for "Down under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass"). The area has emerged as one of New York's coolest art districts so we blended right in :-)

We had a lovely lunch at the River Cafe nestled beneath the Brooklyn Bridge. Let's hope that the sunny weather was not the calm before the storm. It was heartening to see the New York humour in action as we overheard one of the barmen creating a cocktail "Hurricane"!
