settling in

day two in the big apple & still so much to do. i feel like my eyeballs are on overload when we walk down the streets, finding new things to do & places to go along the way. yesterday, we managed to walk 30 blocks {no big deal} to get our camera supplies for class, were mistaken for locals twice {not sure how that happened}, scoped out the dining hall & ate a scrumptious dinner at a cute little underground italian restaurant. all in all, a nice morning after the arrival.

spotted this clever shoe store on our hour-long walk.

washington square park again.

my new ride.

piadina ristorante.

friendly staff, cool artwork, romantic atmosphere. if only mary were a boy.

my mussels in a white-wine & garlic broth with lemon. YUM. if only i had the nerve to order a class of wine with it {one.more.month.}
