  • Prince Harry was in Our Hood?!

    That's right around down the block from where we live. Dang! Missed my chance to see a royal. hehe

    I'm really enjoying the spring weather in NYC. Winter felt so long this year, so it's nice to finally bust out the flip-flops and skirts. We've resumed walking in Morningside Park before work and in Central Park on Saturday mornings.

    Our favorite course is walking from our apt through Central Park to the upper 60s, and then heading west to watch a matinee at our fave NYC movie theater. It takes about an hour but it's a great workout and fun way for us to unwind from the week. I literally feel the stress disappear as I walk through gorgeous Central Park.

    But now we can only watch matinees. I can't bear to pay $13 for a movie when it's only $6 in the a.m. (yes I am becoming a penny pinching ajumma!)
     
    I recently discovered an indoor heated swimming pool a block away from our apt! I can't believe all this time it was just a street away! I love that about NYC, how each street and block has a surprise and can lead to an unexpected discovery.   We checked out the pool yesterday morning and it looked great- lap lanes, super clean, locker rooms and best of all it's free to use! Yay! Can't wait to jump in tomorrow night for open swim.
     
    How's everyone's spring coming along so far?
