While I was on the East Coast, I decided to take a short trip to New York to see my good friend Jenny. {If you're new to this blog, or haven't been paying attention, Jenny and I met during our study abroad in London, and have been friends ever since.}
I flew in Wednesday morning and flew out Friday afternoon. It was a quick trip, but we did tons of stuff. I am so happy I decided to fly up and see Jenny before leaving for Korea.
Here is what we did:
We took a walk in Central Park
{Cleopatra's Needle- the other one is in London}
We went to the Met- mainly to get out of the heat.
{"The Engagement Ball" This used to be an apartment window}
{I don't remember what this is called, but it reminded me of Jud.}
{Beautiful English Tea Set. Matt this is what I want for my birthday.}
{Monet "Bridge Over a Pond of Water Lilies"}
{Monet "Water Lilies"}
{Monet "The Houses of Parliament"}
{Pissarro "Effect of Sunlight"}
{Japanese Tourists}
{Van Gogh "Wheat Field with Cyprus"}
{Van Gogh "Cypresses"}
Wednesday night we had a picnic and watched Argo at the Chelsea Piers. {PS. The sandwich I had was the best I've had in a long time.}
Ate New York style pizza
Went to Serendipity and got the Frozzen Hot Chocolate
Took the Subway
Went to Times Square {Thanks Jenny for making the trip}
Stopped at Herald Square
Of course we hit up a few cupcake shops and ended the trip cuddling in bed watching Death at a Funeral. {The British version}
Thanks Jenny for the wonderful trip. I had a great time and can't wait to see you in Korea... you are coming right?
So many things struck me with this post:
ReplyDelete1. I kept waiting for the Japanese tourists when I was scrolling through all the art. So glad you captured that.
2. Don't underestimate the deliciousness of a sketchy bodega sandwich.
3. We really struggled looking at the right place at the camera when taking selfies, but I think we crushed it with the one in Times Square.
4. SO HAPPY YOU CAME UP!!
5. Korea better get ready for me.
Love you, A Money!
xoxo
Jenny- I'm glad you seem to have liked this post. I still dream about that sandwich and wish I could recreate it here! Let's start planning your trip ASAP!
