Then we took the train out to near Jersey suburbs for more walking in the town that Adrienne and I first stayed at when we got here, and a tasty italian meal.<\/p>\n<p>Took the long way home through the city, walking through Macy&#8217;s (billed as the world&#8217;s largest store). Then back on the train to home. Where we let the feet rest before heading to bed, so we could get up in time to get out the door to catch a 9:20 flight.
