Northwest by Northeast

A couple of weeks ago we left behind the Northwest for a visit to the Northeast. Our first stop was to Hannah and John's in New Haven. Below is Bridget posing next to Alexander Calder's Gallows and Lollipops on the Yale campus.
Here we see Bridget and Hannah trying the mashed potato and bacon pizza at BAR in New Haven.
Next we took the train to New Rochelle and stayed with our friend Laura. Friday afternoon we visited the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

After the museum we wandered through the streets of New York where we happened upon Rockefeller Plaza.
In true Seinfeld fashion Laura and Bridget share a black and white cookie in Times Square.

The next day we met up with Hannah in Brooklyn. After a tasty brunch with Hannah and her friend Matt we walked to the Artbreak Gallery. On our way to the gallery we stopped by a small shopped called Fuego where, inspired by Hannah's earlier purchase of a colorful bag, Bridget and Laura joined the party and bought their own.


On our way back to the subway stop after viewing the gallery we happened across a neighborhood novelty pencil display. The sight of so many novelty pencils brought a smile to Bridget's face as she thought back on her own novelty pencil collection.

Once back in Manhattan we walked from the Eastside, through Central Park .

After the walk through the park we stumbled upon some snacks at Senor Swanky's. Below is Laura and Hannah enjoying some swanky green tortilla chips.


It was a great trip with great friends and we can't wait to do it again.

Whoa, Gallows and Lollipops? That is some edgy name. I'll appreciate it more next time I see it. Miss you guys ....
