    Union Square Cafe
    Lunch and a parade

    Today, I had lunch at one of my favorite spots, Union Square Cafe. Beforehand, I walked past the New York City Columbus Day Parade, and took a few photos.

    A day in Manhattan
    Coffee, brunch, shopping, and a bridge

    Today, I had brunch at Momofuku Ssäm Bar with some friends, walked down to Soho to the REI store to buy a new jacket for my travels, and then I walked home across the Williamsburg Bridge.
