of a single birthday into an entire month. Since this
year will be my 30th Birthday, the celebration has definitely
been extended. Thankfully, the husband indulges me in
this and has even planned different surprises throughout
the month.
The first was a sunset beer cruise with our dear friends from
Alphabet City Beer Co. It was amazing, dreamy, and
romantic. There is something so calming about being out
on the water and seeing the city from the outside.
We were also down in the Financial District, which
we are almost never in. It was a reminder of how
big the city actually is, and why tourist areas
should always be avoided in NYC.
This was our sailboat, it was built in the 1920's
and at one time had F. Scott Fitzgerald (and probably
Zelda, too) as a passenger.
We sailed out near Staten Island and got to see
lightning in the Jersey distance, thankfully it
never came our way. The sun had set by the time we
got closer to the city and as we pulled back into
the marina, "New York, New York" was blasting
and it was kind of perfect. Doing things like this
only deepens my love for this city.
together and indulging my weird love for celebrating
my birthday. He continues to be the best.
