Weekend Wanderings in NYC: Battery Park & Seaglass Carousel

September 30, 2016 by Eve

Last week, we went across the Brooklyn bridge to finally check out the seaglass carousel at Battery Park, the Southern tip of Manhattan. The Seaglass carousel was built where New York’s first aquarium stood in the early 20th century and is designed to ressemble an underwater garden. The shimmering fish seats move in all sorts of patterns, so you’re twisting and turning and moving all over the place and not just going in circles. We’ve certainly never been on a […]

Weekend Wanderings in NYC: Governors Island

September 29, 2016 by Eve

Trying to play “catch up” with my blog right now and wanted to share some photos from last weekend at Governors Island. Governors Island is only a quick ferry ride away from Brooklyn and it’s a great destination for kids. You can rent bikes (even tandem or 6-seater surrey bikes!) to explore the island on or ride down the longest slide in NYC at 57 feet at The Hills play area. The island offers some of the best views of […]

Boston

September 22, 2016 by Eve

After Martha’s Vineyard, we went to Boston for a day. We spent the afternoon following the Freedom Trail. Boston’s signature attraction is a 2.5-mile line of red paint or brick that passes by key locations significant to the history of the United States. Granary Burying Ground, established in 1660, where some of America’s most notable citizens rest. The Old State House is one of the oldest public buildings in the USA.

Martha’s Vineyard

September 21, 2016 by Eve

Martha’s Vineyard, a Massachusetts island just south of Cape Cod, is mostly famous for two things: Steven Spielberg’s “Jaws” was filmed there, and former heads of state have made this tiny slice of paradise their chosen summer retreat: first the Clintons, then the Obamas. It was our first time on the island, and while we didn’t meet any shark nor any current, former or future heads of state, it is the most magical place ever. We were only doing a quick trip […]

Cape Cod and August’s first visit to the beach

September 21, 2016 by Eve

I already shared bits and pieces on Instagram a couple of weeks ago about our time in Massachusetts, but I finally got around to going through all the photos (brace yourselves, there are a lot!). Travelling with 1 month old baby and a toddler is not the easiest, but I wouldn’t trade the memories and experiences we’ve been able to create together while doing so for anything… A summer visit to New England isn’t complete without a lobster shack experience. […]

Our family of four

September 20, 2016 by Eve

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a over a month now since August joined our family. It went by so fast, this first month of his life here with us. I knew it would, it happened that way with Victor too, but somehow, it was extra fast this time. If I could hit the pause button, well I’d be hitting that button all day long. There is something about that newborn smell, the quivering chin when they are hungry, […]

Four years of interrupted sleep. Four years of unconditional love. Happy birthday big boy 🌷🌼
April showers definitely bringing on the May flowers. I won’t get to admire the whole fluffy cherry blossom thing year, but the magnolias kind of make up for it. #springblooms #treestaking
Monday. 7pm. 📦🤯 #smackbangdesigns
Wild ride 🎠✨
Short-lived sunshine 🌞
It was too good to be true. After a balmy Saturday, temperatures plummeted more than 30 degrees overnight, leaving us to another cold and gusty day. Is teleportation via Instagram a thing yet?!
