Finally got over my laziness and got my pictures off my camera from this weekend. We took two tours: One was a ferry tour around Manhattan Island, which, although it took three hours and my face was burning by the end, was a really interesting trip. Did you know there are completely undeveloped areas of forest at the Northernmost tip? I didn’t! Second was a fantastic walking tour through the Chelsea Market and Meatpacking District. I do love it when people come and visit!

Oh, and as a restaurant recommendation, check out Le Bonne Soupe. Awesome little French place!

What another grand, tourist-y, girls weekend, with my mom and grandma! Saturday had some iffy weather, and even though we were on an open-top bus tour, we managed to evade most of it. It poured a good bit while we were ate the gorgeous Frick Collection. Neither my grandmother nor Jack had ever been out to the Statue of Liberty, so Sunday the four of us took a ferry out to Liberty and Ellis Island. The weather could not have been better for that! Warm sun and cool breezes!

Next weekend is going to seem so slow after these past few weeks. I am looking forward to the relaxing down-time, but I’m ready for more people to come a visit!
