I take a Metro-North train from Grand Central Terminal in NYC to Greenwich, CT for a pleasant day trip in one of the wealthiest towns in the country. Besides the rich residents and large homes, many hedge funds are located in Greenwich. After arriving, I walk up Greenwich Ave. to go to CFCF Coffee for breakfast. Then I check out the Bruce Museum, which is an institution that features exhibits dedicated to art and science. After that, I enjoy a great lunch at one of the best restaurants in the city, L'escale at the Delamar Hotel. Then I have an espresso from another location of CFCF Coffee and explore Greenwich Ave., which is lined with a number of fancy stores. Finally, I conclude my trip with a walk around the shore of Greenwich. I check out the harbor, some of the beautiful homes, and Bruce Park before I return to New York.

    This is the America I envisioned as a kid, with prosperity and affluence. Truly a beautiful place.

    I grew up in Greenwich. Graduated from Greenwich High School. I haven't been for 15 years. I miss it. I used to take the train from NYC to Greenwich and back. We used to camp on the island you mentioned that you need to take a ferry. These were my childhood memories. Thank you for bringing them back!

    I’m offended when you call it a “NYC suburb”, sorry we don’t associate with anything New York. We are Connecticut
  • @czoubek
    I was blessed to grow up in the Bruce Park area. I miss it every day!❤

    I'm glad you went to Greenwich because you can really find a lot of luxurious places to eat for little money. Plus it's a stunning city that will treat the visitor good!

    Awwww this brought back so many memories. I loved growing up here. I had my first volunteer job at the Bruce Museum. I love l'escale but you missed Garden Catering. Its a local multi generational favorite with the best fried food you'll ever eat. Also you didnt get to go toTodds Point. Although you need to be a resident to go to Todds. Next time you visit us you need to go to both if you can get a guest pass or go with someone :))

    I love greenwhich. Its a beautiful place.. The only thing is in the summer, the beaches are expensive for non residents. I'm from Connecticut and still would have to pay a lot to go the beach there...but theres a lot to see. Nice video. All the best..

  • @choochalah
    nice day trip. perhaps the island part was purposefully confusing...who knows. looks like a tranquil upscale spot to visit.
  • @Mark-ec3lp
    Great idea, laptop free zone, so many places have people sat the entire day using up seats for one coffee but all the while glued to their screen.
  • @Ecens_20
    My god Greenwich is so wealthy you need to check out the houses

    Tell Pete Gas of the mean Street Posse I said keep it groovy, Cheerio. I am loving the views, looks like a real righteous place.
