New York City, November 12-17


Above: a beautiful Japanese maple at the botanical gardens.

We are behind on our posts, so this will be short. We tried to see everyone we know and love who lives in New York in 5 days. This resulted in eating out a lot, as well as a fair amount of wine-drinking.

Simona fell in love with the delicious happy hippie food at Caravan of Dreams. Try the tofu scramble and the fresh juices. Eli was appalled that he could only accompany his coffee with almond or soy milk. Although it is limited in its range, this vegan restaurant makes for a great pit stop after a yoga session with Patty at Shiva Shala, Simona's favorite place to practice (thanks Jessie!).


We took an excursion to the Bronx to visit the botanical gardens. We hadn't seen fall colors in ages, and the trees seemed wonderfully alive.
