Quick trip to the Big Apple..

Another long weekend meant booking a last minute trip to the Big Apple, this time getting out to the wilderness of Bear Mountain!

The High Line

After walking the High Line once again, I took a bus for an hour or so and chatted to a girl who was going to the same place.

We ended up going on a few different routes through Bear Mountain having to change tracks at some stage as some others hikers passed us to advise that there was in fact, black bears ahead..!

Bear Mountain

After a full day of hiking we caught a bus back and went our separate ways back in the big city.

I was staying with my housemate and we went out for some yummy food and drinks around the East Village area.

The next morning I went for a wander and a spot of shopping before a late brekky with my housemate and meeting up with some other mates from Cayman who were also in the NYC for the weekend.

Cool kids

We met at The W Rooftop Bar which had great views from Brooklyn over to the Manhattan skyline and as it was too hot to sit outside, we ended up inside drinking, quite a lot all afternoon and out for a few more.

More High Line views..

An early morning flight back to the Rock and the weekend was gone – I had fit in shopping, eating delicious food, drinks out and a hike in a national park – my type of weekend.
