The High Line is an elevated freight rail line transformed into a public park on Manhattan’s West Side. It runs from Gansevoort Street in the Meatpacking District -  last photo on the post - to West 34th Street, between 10th and 12th Avenues and is 2,5 km long.

My mom is here visiting from Vienna and I couldn't be happier, but apparently the weather felt otherwise and decided to honor us with a real, torrential New York downpour today.

The Smile is the perfect place to hide away from the world and eat abnormal amounts of good food while no one is watching.

Once you have a good pie crust down, the world is practically in your hands.

Tea & Sympathy

With this week's cold and rainy weather, the first leaves starting to fall from the trees and my ever present cold, all I want is tea and scones while watching people from inside a cozy restaurant.
