Last week my mom and I packed our bags and took a little trip to visit New York City during the holiday season. This has been a big dream for the both of us so we were really excited. We had an amazing time right from the start. We had our first meal and a delicious cup of coffee at Chelsea market then we went on a holiday light tour to see all of the shop windows (Macy's was our favorite). An unexpected surprise was looking around the New York Public library. Inside it was warm and filled with so many books and free exhibits! Then we stopped by the Lion Brand Yarn Studio and I oohed-and-aahed over the pretty colors. We saw "the tree" at Rockefeller Center, ate some yummy macarons, and just had fun running around the city. I was toting three cameras and doing my best to capture every moment. I even took a little iPhone video with the 8mm app.
Such a fun memory from an amazing trip.
New York, I can't wait to see you again!
