More fun in NYC...

She swooned
when she saw this big green bug.
Bjork is a celebrity watcher for sure.

Before it started raining,

we were able to sit outside

on the double decker bus.

We passed by Times Square

on our way to other places...

Bjorn couldn't resist

this "sweet" photo op!

This pretty building

is behind the NYC

Public Library in Bryant Park.

Seems rather elegant....

It is actually one of the best kept secrets in NYC...

a very fancy public rest room

voted as the best in the city!

It was foggy at South Street Seaport

but the view of the tall ships

was still pretty amazing...

The Brooklyn Bridge

was barely visible in the fog

but Bjork can never resist

such photo ops...

Of course, souvenirs were in order...

a tiny "I love NY" bear..

a vintage chenille bear

from Tinsel Trading...

A good time was had by all. Special thanks to our traveling companions: Marie, Michael and Margaret. We visited many other of our favorite places...all in one day! We were glad to sit down for the ride home on the train.

Hope your travels are many...

and as always...

enjoy the day!

Just a one more thing....

While vising NYC he other day, I stopped in to Tinsel Trading Company. I had been there last summer and new that the store would be moving soon. One would just have to wonder if such a wonderful ambiance could be recreated in a different venue. Not to worry! The new place has all the same charm and all the same vintage trims, ribbons, goodies that have made this store the favorite of Martha Stewart.

The owner, Marcia Ceppos, is as gracious and helpful as ever. I only wish I had more time (and money!) to spend that day. Above you will see some of the trims I purchased. Most are vintage. Tinsel Trading Co. is featured in the new magazine "Where Women Create" and you can see the old store photos in the article.

This woman needs to get creating early today....

enjoy your day!
