But a tour allll over NYC would've taken forever soooo I settled for a walking tour that focused on chocolate hotspots ...
Bryant Park | Manhattenhenge
If one was to ever ask me what park is my favorite in NYC, I would hands down say "Bryant Park." It's small in comparison to Central Park but in this case, size does not matter ;) During the summer... You can find herds of people doing yoga in the lawn, playing ping-pong, concentrating ...

If The Jungle Had Walls
This marks my second time going to a zoo this year... As I'm working on this transitional move to the VA area, the need to explore NYC has become even more urgent. As such, a trip to the Bronx Zoo was only proper. If I had to compare the DC National Zoo to the Bronx Zoo ...
Star Struck In The Name Of Dance
While bar hopping with friends in Hell's Kitchen, a friend yelled "OMG! I think that's Keone and Mariel!" And of course I was like "Ahhhh, I love them! I must get a picture with them!" Which then prompted us to run into the Duane Reade after them only to run back out because we felt like stalkers. ...
