personal highlights

1. Little Italy: very touristic and by far not as busy and bustling as Chinatown
2. Restaurants: there is an incredible abundance of pizza and pasta in this area
3. Z Cioccolato: nearly getting a sugar overdose only by entering this candy store
4. Cathedrals: I did not expect so many churches and cathedrals (10) in this town
5. Washington Square Park: enjoying the warm sunshine on a relaxed winter day
