When Lea heard, that we´ve met Parker Posey yesterday she was pretty excited and was a bit jelous. She told us about her, and Michael sent us a posey-link.
In the evening we had our next appointment: Archivists Roundtable of NYC! We were invited to their xmasparty. Valentina wasn´t very happy to go there, but I told her that we should go. Even if it will be boring, it is fun just to see another kind of party. We had to pay 10 $ admission and also had to bring an unwrapped gift for a child.
We expected getting food if we pay that much, but as we arrived at “Fraunces Tavern” (US oldest tavern!) there where only a couple of plates with vegetable sticks!! Unbelieveable! We are hungry! So we went to the bar, picked a drink and then did what interns have to do: parking next to the food! *lol* Suddenly some guys came in and they brought some other plates with meat and with chocolate. Excellent!! So we walked from one table to the next, had some conversation and a lot of food. If you know you will never meet all these guys again you can do it on that way!! ;)
Against our expectations we had a lot of fun and good food. When we left the party at 8.30 pm, we walked around that area and decided to go to the harbour taking a view on the Statue of Liberty. It was the first time I had seen Miss Liberty that close and that was pretty cool! Suddenly somebody had the idea to go to Staten Island by ferry. We caught the ferry which was right coming in and enjoyed the view on Miss Liberty and skyline of Manhattan. It was awesome!! In Staten Island we jumped over to the next ferry and rode back immediately. This ferry ride is always a fun trip! I have to do it again!!
