Our second and final day in NYC on Sunday was just as beautiful as Saturday, so we took full advantage of the gorgeous weather and spent almost the whole day outside. We started our day with Brunch at Tipsy Parson in Chelsea, which I would highly recommend. The food was delicious and the atmosphere charming and quaint. Afterwards, we did a little bit of shopping – Nick to B&H Photo and me to Zara. Afterwards, we met up at our hotel, checked out, left our bags with them and headed out
to enjoy our last afternoon in the city.
We grabbed a cab and headed down to the West Village for a stop at Magnolia Bakery. We sat for a while in the small park across the street and enjoyed our cupcakes and just watched the people and took in the scene. It was so nice to just sit and take it all in, in one of my favorite areas of the city.
Next we walked through the Village towards the Hudson River and wandered along the walking path there for a while, stopping for a bit at the pier and sitting, watching the city go by. After a while we started walking toward the Meatpacking District and Chelsea again and came across a Citi Bike station (a new bike share program in NYC). I’d really been wanting to do this in NYC as we’ve done other programs in Europe, like when we rode bikes in Hyde Park in London. So we rented a couple bikes and headed up the bike path along the river. We rode all the way past Chelsea and then returned our bikes and headed back to our hotel to head to the airport. Sunday was so much fun and we had such an amazing time in the city all weekend. I love New York City and each time I go there, I remember all the reasons why. While quick, it was a memorable and lovely weekend in NYC.
