Our first stop was New York where we stayed with our friends in Brooklyn. The first night, we walked down the street to a fabulous Middle Eastern restaurant. Great food and we ate so much! The next day, we met Kris for lunch and went to his favorite coffee shop. Afterwards, we enjoyed some good NY pizza.
Kris went back to work and we were on our own to wander the streets of New York. We found a good gelato place. We shared some gelato while people watching.
We made our way to Magnolia Bakery where we enjoyed three different types of cupcakes. Good thing they only offered three varieties! Talk about sugar overload!
Afterwards, we ran into a beautiful Old English sheepdog. Derek and I both had one while growing up. The dog's owner was a huge sheepdog fan and loved talking to us about her dog. They were really sweet.
We made a quick stop at Ground Zero. I found the streets to be a bit haunting. As I looked down the side streets, I just pictured the billows of smokes chasing people down the road.
Needless to say, by the end of the day we were tired and still so full from all the food we had eaten in the past 24 hours. But, we of course didn't pass up dinnner. We went to K-town for some cold noodles. On the way home we stopped at the Brooklyn bridge and enjoyed the skyline of NYC.
The next morning, our friends dropped us off at the train station and we were off to Philadelphia!
