New York City is one of the liveliest places on Earth. There are a million things to do there. One of the most underrated but wonderful neighborhoods in New York is Harlem. In recent years it has undergone a revitalization. There is a wonderful restaurant called Londel’s om Eighth Avenue in Harlem. It is a small place that my husband has taken me to on several occasions. When we come to Harlem, we leave Londel’s and head out shopping. We usually start on 125th street. Of these occasions, one stands out in particular. We stopped by the Apollo and took pictures. We then made our way up and down the street to all of the stores. We were able to shop and buy clothes and New York memorabilia. We also visited the new Carol’s Daughter store, which had wonderful skin care products. We finished the day by going downtown and then we had a late dinner at a small pizzeria in the village. The day was great because as we drove down Eighth Avenue we got to see all the stores and sites the city has to offer. It was one of the best days of my life! It was a very peaceful, yet completely exciting day in New York.
