5/30: No Soup For You!!

Woke up groggy, but wasn't hungover at all. Woohoo! Still got it. :)

We went on a bus tour of New York sites featured in TV and movies, led by a very enthusiastic tour guide named Erica. Here are the highlights:

Seinfeld
The Soup Nazi's kitchen


Friends
The Moondance Diner (where Monica worked as a dancing waitress)
The Friends apartment building (correctly located in the West Village)


The Cosby Show
The Huxtable house


Will & Grace
The building for Grace Adler Designs


Central Park West
Crap loads of celebrities live there. One of the more interesting tidbits we learned was that Yoko Ono still lives in the building where she and John Lennon lived. She actually owns most of the building that she can decide who can live there. It's rumored that she banned Madonna because she didn't want a lot of paparazzi hanging out.


Tribeca
Robert De Niro loves it there


Ghostbusters
The fire station
The apartment building that doubles as the gateway to the underworld


You've Got Mail
The Shop Around the Corner (in real life an antiques store that has really good brownies)


The Meat Packing District
Location of Ed Harris's character's apartment in The Hours
Drag queens! (I'm sure I'm not the first one to find the district name appropriate...)
