Visiting Orange County, NYHello, it's a new week! Happy Monday and GREETINGS from NYC! We are pretty excited about today... First, of all the plans are to meet up with Elisa and the girls - which we are looking so forward to. Can you believe that it's been almost a year since we've seen each other and spent any time together?! Second, another cousin is coming by to meet up with us and we'll head to Yankees Stadium to watch the Yankees vs Blue Jays game! It'll definitely be another fun day for us! Meanwhile, yesterday we happened to step (drive) outside of NYC and head to Orange County - not the OC that's in SoCal, but the OC that is just about a 2 hour drive upstate. We were heading to visit my Aunt Michele and Uncle Jim. Traffic wasn't too bad on the way up (the way down was much worse) and the drive was beautiful. The visit with my Aunt and Uncle was lovely. We had a nice lunch together and spent a good amount of time outdoors enjoying the beautiful weather. 'The Anti Steve Irwin and not even close to Nat Geo" video below can only be viewed from the BLOG . We took a walk over to the pond, fed the koi, saw frogs and a ton of tadpoles. And then there was a SNAKE. If you've seen me react to lizards and anemones the you can only imagine how I react when there is a snake nearby!!! Another 'Anti Steve Irwin and not even close to Nat Geo' video below. Eventually my gang bid our adieus and made our way back to the city and to my grandma's. That's all for now folks. Meet me back here tomorrow for all the scoop from today! -Travelin' Tanya |
