Spent this past weekend in NYC, visiting Beth, and it was great.
It's a long hike for me- I travel out of Boston by bus, which is about 5 hours each way with traffic, 4.5 without, but we make the most of the weekend and it's totally worth it.
This weekend, we biked around Governors Island, which is such a strange, intriguing and unique place.
You can rent nice pretty blue bikes for cheapo money (15$ per 2 hours, 25$ for four hours), and bike around the island.
(Me on said pretty blue bike)
The weather was beaut, and there was a nice breeze- biking around an island that looks like downtown Portsmouth (except with a view of the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and some mighty big buildings) with the wind in your hair...just awesome!
(Doesn't it look like Portsmouth?)
That night, we had dinner at a cute little cafe called Penelope, and saw Le Cage aux Folles, with Kelsey Grammer, who looked FAB and was singing and dancing and all of that jazz.
Great weekend! :) Trying not to get down on the fact that I watched what I ate and biked 6-7 miles and gained a pound this week :( ... I'm still down 12 total, though, which I have to remember.
