Saturday Sights Part II



As promised, here are more photos of our excursion last Saturday.

We went to the South Street Seaport, a stone's throw from Wall Street. It was mostly a tourist trap but it was fun to see the ships and be so close to the water. Plus, it had a great view.

When I saw the tugboat, I couldn't stop myself from going "toot toot!" But I wouldn't do the motion for the picture. Sorry, Adam.
We checked out the restaurants on the pier but didn't find anything reasonable. Then we wandered down a cobble-stone street, past some bars that were hopping, and stumbled upon this restaurant, Carmine's. It's over 100 years old! It's hard to see in the picture, but it looked really...piratey from the outside. Inside, the low lighting and thick wooden furniture added to the feeling that we were on board a ship—the Black Pearl? And we ate some of the best food I've had here: clams, scallops, shrimp, and fish fillet, with spaghetti to break up the fishiness and garlic bread to sop up all the mouth-watering sauces. I'd been craving seafood for a while and I was in pregnancy heaven.

I think Adam's thinking, how much is this going to cost? And I'm just excited to eat seafood.

The Man-child

Emily and I read this article earlier this year about the man-child. It's really interesting. Tell us what you think. This image is on that very subject by Graham Roumieu who is very talent artist I stumbled upon in the past month.

This is another one I really loved.
