We drove into the city on Saturday morning...
Crossing the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge on our way into Brooklyn. |
Looking into Manhattan... |
...and then looking over to Queens. |
Check out the Oz-like FDR memorial just beyond Dave's shoulder! |
As the afternoon grew cooler we started to make our way back to Meghan and Derek's apartment where Derek mixed up some Manhattans and we snacked on cheese and crackers.
Our college friend Julia joined us at Talde for dinner with her boyfriend. We ordered enough yummy Asian food to fill our entire table! My favorites were the Korean fried chicken and the Brussels sprouts.
We finished off the evening at the Brooklyn Academy of Music where we enjoyed after-dinner drinks and a jazz band.
Meghan made us buttermilk waffles on Sunday morning and then we headed home. Dave and I were so glad that we took this little weekend trip since we were stuck inside for a couple of days when Hurricane Sandy hit on Monday. I hope everybody stayed safe during the hurricane!
