Magnet #904 - The StrandImpromptu DC roadtrip turned into today's impromptu New York City Adventures day, wherein I shepherded my teen cousins around town.
Crazy walking - of course...and combined with some crazy eating. The day included a picnic on the High Line, a walk around Chelsea Piers, a visit to the Forbes Galleries for their soldiers and toy boat collection, cupcakes at Baked by Melissa, browsing the Strand, storytime at the Scholastic store, stumbling into the Van Leeuwen ice cream truck, browsing Pylones and the MOMA Design store, tons of rice pudding at Rice to Riches, a glamhike through SoHo, and pizza uptown.
Seriously exhausted, but so much fun! It's truly why I love this town...when we were deciding what to do this morning, we couldn't think of anything. So, we just got on the subway and let the day take us where it may.
Of course, I think I need a pair of handcuffs for The Strand. I can't help but pick up books and books there! Argh. But, dudes. How cute is this magnet!
