when i say train miracle, i mean it. our 10:00pm train was delayed with no estimate of when it would arrive or depart due to bridge problems. kraig and i were literally about to buy megabus tickets when they announced that an acela train would be doing the regional route from NYC to DC. it was a miracle!!!!!
***a HUGE thank you to Blake and Stefi for making our NYC dreams come true, and for being such great travel companions! it really was amazing!
Hey! I found your blog through your sister's and I am so glad I did! I have really enjoyed reading your posts and following along.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you had a wonderful visit! You hit up a lot of my favorite places. So glad you tried the banana pudding at Magnolia- so much better than their cupcakes! If you ever need help planning your next visit to NYC don't hesitate to email!

ReplyDeleteI love NYC, but I agree there are some weirddd smells that come from that place, haha! Love the pictures!
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to visit NY, and your pictures just made me drool over it even more---this looks like an amazing trip! And of course (as usual)---stunning photos! You're a real inspiration for me: you've made me want to work much harder on developing my own photography skills :)
