I've finally gotten around to posting photos from my New York trip! I met up with
Kristina and
Midge on two separate days; we went to McCarren Park in Brooklyn for a picnic on Saturday, and then we headed to the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens on Sunday. It was really nice to hang out with them and be in nature (especially in a city where green space is a precious commodity), and we had a lot of fun getting to know each other. I didn't take any photos on Saturday, but have plenty from our botanical garden adventure!
I was cursing myself for not bringing along a floral print dress for this trip. As a group, we had initially talked about heading to Coney Island later that day, which is why I brought this carnival print dress with me. However, it was collectively decided that it was simply too long a schlep, so we instead had a delicious dinner at a Mexican restaurant Kristina recommended. I'm still really undecided about what I want to do, as far as whether or not I want to move back to the New York area, but it's comforting to know that if I do decide to move, I'll have some friends waiting for me. And I'm sure I'll make it to Coney Island someday. :)
Even though nothing on my trip really went according to plan (i.e., we were a much smaller group than we'd anticipated, I got super-lost on my way to the park on Saturday, etc.), we still managed to have a great time together, and I'm glad that I decided to go. Many thanks to Midge and Kristina for snapping pictures of me (and dealing with my ignorance when it comes to photography) -- and for being as lovely in real life as you are on the internet! :)
