I was in New York City for the weekend, and yesterday walked from north to south on the island of Manhattan. I had been wanting to do this for some time, and this trip finally did the walk. Lindsay Turner was also in town for the weekend, so it was Lauren, Lindsay, Jenn, Kelly (Jenn's co-worker), Brad (Lindsay's friend) and myself. We started in the Bronx at 225th Street at about 9:15am and finished at about 2pm at Battery Park. We walked through Harlem, Central Park and then 5th Avenue and Broadway. It was warm and humid, but we had lots of water and a Jamba Juice pit stop at 42nd Street. We all had a good time, and I had lots of blisters on my feet by the time we finished. After the walk we stopped at Magnolia Bakery for a cupcake, and then went back to Jenn's apartment for a much needed shower. My legs are sore today, but I would definitely be up for walking the island again sometime
