Postcards from New York City

Bryant Park

We love New York. We love Chicago more. But still, we love NY for its high intensity all night vibe, it’s endless walks, the cool AF people who live there and it’s amazing architecture (all spiraling upwards and fueled by the millions and millions of immigrants who have passed through). Hands down the second best city in America.

Caffe Reggio in the Village; they may have invented the cappuccino. This is the espresso machine that once caffeinated a lot of NY dreams.
They even have their own Bean. Same artist and everything. And for some reason they squished it into a random tight spot in Tribeca that hardly anyone knows about.
Winnie the Pooh and friends. These are the actual stuffies A.A. Milne purchased for his son Christopher Robin. You can see them, for free, at the New York Public Library located behind Bryant Park.
The greatest hour of television ever.
From top to bottom: Inside St. Patrick’s Cathedral, the beautiful lady spied from the SI Ferry, having a hamentashen at the Hungarian Pastry Shop in Harlem, walking The Ramble in Central Park, the city reflected in a pond at Central Park and walking near the 911 museum. Everything except the hamentashen here was free.
A lot of little things to gawk at too.

We spent almost a week in Gotham. And we are exhausted. Honestly the city kicked our asses. But we cannot wait to get back.
