Koli & Mickeli (aka Chloe & Michael)
On day 3, it was time to take our bite of the big apple and we did. But I gotta say that no matter how many times I visit NYC I still feel like a tourist and not just in the touristy areas but everywhere, that is one busy city. You would think that being from SF I could handle the hustle & bustle of it all, but find I myself lost in all there is to see…and therefore I look like a tourist with my trusty OM-D around my neck, my mouth hanging open from looking up at the buildings and the fact that I’m constantly trailing behind to snap a shot (side note, reason #273 why I love Mike is that he does an amazing job never loosing me as I wonder off). That being said… I love it.
Mo & Drea were the best tour guides ever! We walked, we cabbed, we trained, we ate, we drank, we partied, we shopped, we made new friends, we saw the sites, we Baseballed, we even got a taste of NY meter maids (they suck) then we ate some more and we drank some more…it was awesome. We totally need to step up our game next time you guys our way…Thank you!
I really liked the guy selling the magazines in the top right pic…
We rolled around with the top down which is really awesome unless you’re in the backseat on the freeway (learn something new everyday, sorry Mel!)
Mike really wanted me to take this picture… PS this is the Meat Packing District
Meter maids suck around these parts…

Delicious and oh so tiny!
I have a horrible sense of direction so I’m not sure which direction this was pointing but it would’ve been awesome if it was West.
Harlem!
I really, really wanted to go to Sho Nuff Uni-Sex hair salon!
Sylvia’s Amaze-balls soul food!!!
The new World Trade Center Towers…the are breath taking
My baby found us a 2 century old cemetery to explore (reason #197 he always scouts out the best places for us to explore)
On our way to the Met’s stadium…loved the view from the train!
Peace out NYC…thank you for a wonderful vacation…until next time….
These were all shot on our new Olympus OM-D!
Shot w/ our Olympus OM-D…it’s pretty awesome!
We had the pleasure of attending Andrea & Mo’s wedding last month in NYC (well Jersey to be exact) and it was a freakin’ blast! From the second we stepped into the SFO airport until we landed back here it was a non-stop party (our over-worked livers can attest to how much fun we had). This is just a taste from the first 3 days! Thank you to our fabulous hosts…can’t wait til we go back!
Congratulations Mo & Drea, I hope your honeymoon is everything you wanted it to be!
All these images we captured on our amazing new Olympus OM-D a fantastic, powerful camera that we got for this very reason…compact party/adventure camera!
creepy hallway late night…totally thought I was going to be attacked by a ghost!
Breakfast at the local Jersey diner…
Andrea & mo’s gorgeous wedding!!!
My handsome boo 
Such a delicious spread! Soooo much yummy food, we were so spoiled!
One of the best first dances ever! Straight out of Pulp Fiction!
Shots! Shots! Shots!
Congratulations Newly Weds!
Day after- after party at casa Escobar (biggest sandwich I’ve ever seen!)
My baby is such a rockstar…see
Little Aubrey was so much fun to play with…she lights up every room she’s in
The little schmoos…
Don’t fall asleep or else this is what you get Jersey Style!
Stay tuned for our adventures in the Big Apple!
The final chapter of our adventures in the North West…Mike makes dinner for the ladies! On our final night in PA (Port Angeles for those of you who aren’t hip to the lingo), Mike made dinner for my mother, our friend Barbara and me and it was DELICIOUS! Using the fresh pasta we bought at the Public Market in Seattle, the hot sausage links, mushrooms, tomatoes, garlic and wine we got at good ol’ TJ’s and his sexy Italian cooking skills he made us the most scrumptious meal…See for yourself!
