Amsterdam Part II

Some photos that Skye took while we were in Amsterdam.  Although the last one isn't exactly flattering, it makes me laugh so I had to put it on here.  We had been out walking all day and we stopped at our hotel room for a bit before dinner (it was 5PM).  I made myself a coffee and promptly fell asleep for a few hours.  When I woke up, we were both too lazy to go out to dinner and we ended up ordering pizza (online, from a Dutch website!) from a place called New York Authentic Pizza or something like that.  Oh, MTV and VH1 actually play music videos 24/7--mostly just from the 90s, 80s, and 70s....so that made it even harder to leave our hotel room!

Through his eyes.

Skye was able to spend a whole eleven days here in New York with me!  Here are some of the photos he took during his stay.

 

The day Skye had to leave...breakfast at Juliette.  :(

Everyday was full of all the fun things I've been wanting to do/eat in New York.  Trips to the Met, the aquariaum/Coney Island, Highline Park, Chelsea Market, many walks around SoHo/NoHo, Brooklyn Flea.  Eating Roberta's pizzas in bed (this only happened twice....), The Smile (OH MY GOD, the fig, cheese, arugula, truffle oil sandwich...), Ippudo (wasabi shoyu ramen!), Cafe Gitane, a Japanese restaurant in the East Villiage where Skye was the only non-Japanese dude (and he speaks Japanese way better than me!), Momo Sushi Shack and more.  Seeing Midnight in Paris (SO GOOD) and Bill Cunningham New York (you already know how I feel about that).  AND I cut off a bunch of my hair.  100 degree days in NYC will make you do that.  I feel so much better now that I'm not covered in hair.

But the most fun thing of all was spending time with my best friend.  One more month 'till we get to do that again!
