Day92 #100daysofNYC

I know you all know I love the Brooklyn Bridge. I talk about it too much, I take too many pictures of it, yeah yeah. :) It's my favorite! A MUST DO! But, I will give you my opinion... Walk from Brooklyn to Manhattan, not the other way around. It's much better of a view and hike! Ok, enough running my mouth. Here's my favorite shots from the bridge.

Sorry for repeat photos, but I had to take a day to dedicate to this beautiful monument, built in 1870, the Brooklyn Bridge. Little known fact, the bridge seems to have been built so grandiose to match this amazing and large city, but actually Manhattan was built to match the size and stature of the bridge!

Day94 #100daysofNYC

I was blessed to have a few visitors this past weekend! The first of them came last Wednesday night... Brandy, Suzanne, and Hannah! Brandy wanted to surprise Hannah with a trip here because she's been dying to come for a while... I'm worried all my walking and subway rides have changed her dreams of moving here one day ;)

We did have fun though! One of my favorite things we did was something I've had on my list for NYC... We went to see Wicked! It was amazing!! I've never been a huge fan of the Wizard of Oz, but I have heard so many amazing things about the show that I had to go! I was sooooo amazed! Go! Go to it! No matter if you're only in the city for a few days, go! The Gershwin Theater was beautiful! Did I say go? :)





Today is dedicated to Wicked and the amazing shows available to see on and off broadway!

Day96 #100daysofNYC

Museum Monday!

It's a couple days late, but Colleen and I decided to go to the Museum of the City of New York! There are so many amazing museums in this city, and I'm trying to get to all of them! There was a great exhibit dedicated to the graffiti of the city and one for the activists. It's so amazing to see what all New Yorkers have fought for over the years. If you will be here for an extended stay (4+ days) I would definitely add it to your list! It's an amazing museum up on Museum Mile at 5th and 103rd, right across from the park! It's a lot smaller than your typical MoMA, Guggenheim, or the Met, but it's a great addition to the list!




Afterwards, we decided to stroll through Central Park and get some awesome Spring pictures!




So today is dedicated to the beautiful graffiti of NYC ~ The City as Canvas
