I might have mentioned that Eric and I where planning a couple of nights in NYC after visiting my family in New Jersey - we had an amazing time! I'd like to share a few fun photos I made around the city...
Wow, did I feel like an island girl in the city, I forgot how amazing all the buildings are, and how the city has it's own pulse!
We even made it over the bridge to Brooklyn one night to meet up with friends at Brooklyn Bowl for dinner, bowling, and live music. Underground System Afrobeat was playing the night we where there, have you heard them? It was an amazing experience that I would highly recommend going!
The High Line was the first thing we did when we got into the city, have you been? It's really neat - read more about it here.
So, where I live in the Caribbean there aren't any sidewalks and people drive everywhere... but in NYC you walk everywhere. I missed walking so much and realized I need better walking shoes the next time I visit.
After looking at art in the MET we went to Central Park (one of my favorite places in the city) and sailed a little boat in the Model Boat Pond.
Another favorite spot in NYC was 230 Fifth an outdoor rooftop bar where the view is SO New York and the drinks are delicious. This place even had a photo booth for bonus points!
It definitely wasn't enough time to do and see everything on my list. I'm grateful for all my amazing friends that took the time to catch-up and share some laughs (I hope to be back soon for some more.)
PS I made a lot more photos and will do another post on some amazing restaurants that we ate at.
