Road Trip pt 1: New York

We started our road trip on Friday in NYC, one of my favorite cities in the world. Leena was nice enough to let us stay at her apartment for two nights, giving us a couple days to enjoy the city. As with any trip to NY, one of the highlights is the food. We actually strategized our meals, to make sure we could eat at all of favorite spots. By the end of our stay we had eaten at Kati Roll, Buttercup Bakery, Chinese Mirch, Rays Pizza, and Red Bamboo. Aside from the food, we went to Battery Park, where they were having a culture festival, and we enjoyed views of the Statue of Liberty. We also ran into a street fair, full of stands selling mostly food and scarves. Leena decided to add to her scarf collection with a new green $5 scarf from one of the vendors. On Monday we bid our goodbyes and headed off for Charlottesville, VA. Thanks Leena for letting us stay!
