One of the ‘must-go-to-places’ that my family wanted to visit was of course, New York. Even if they’ve been there before, they wanted to go this time because we are complete…mainly for photography’s sake:)…and so we did!
We drove to Connecticut on a Friday night and arrived late since it was a 3 hour drive from Massachusetts. Then we drove to Astoria, Queens early the next morning, parked along 31st Street. It was such an amazing realization how different the streets of Queens and Quincy are from each other! I felt so cramped this time as we cruised along that very familiar street, it did not feel this way when we lived there.
From Astoria, we took the N train at Broadway Ave. going to Central Park…our very first stop and spent a few minutes there before we took off for 5th Avenue, stopped by Rockefeller Center, St. Patrick’s Cathedral..etc. etc.
This is an entry for Weekend Snapshot! Have a great week ahead to all!

NYC will always be NYC, That is certain and real.
I wish I am just a three-hour drive away from NYC, but not…. I am a three-day drive now.
I missed the friends and places, not necessarily the work…lol!
