NYC







To avoid too much countryness, we decided to spend the weekend in the City...strolling, eating Chinese food, listening to music. Do I need more?Mhhh...no actually I don't.

North and South Beaches

Finally good weather and finally outdoors... On Saturday we decided to give Wildwood State Park another chance - last time it was really too windy to enjoy the walk. This Park on the North Shore is easily accessible and just a fifteen minute drive from our home, which is very convenient (no complaints in the car is always very relaxing). We were hoping to use the boat ramp like we did the first time and then walk along the shore, but this time it was closed to public (to the public who doesn't want to climb on the fence) so we took the shortest of the four trails - marked in red - and walked through the beech forest for 1,8 miles. For the blue trail (2,9 miles), the orange trail (2,3 miles) and the yellow trail (3,8 miles) you need to organize food and drinks, unless you want to hear "Are we there yet?" more than hour long. The red trail goes past one bluff from which you can enjoy this view: I got myself "Hiking Long Island" by Lee McAllister, which is of co...

Goodbye!

You can still find me around the corner! I know, I know... it has been one year now. Actually a bit longer than that. And we'll be staying some more months. But I am not a fan of extended projects; this has to end. Now. Also, I am not a fan of goodbyes. But this is a secret. As mentioned here and there, I need to take care of another little writing project with a friend and as much as I like reading couple of books at the same time, I am not able to concentrate on writing more things at a time. Some other things that were happening (or not happening) made me take this decision. I got to go. I will go. I will miss writing about Long Island, but there are such wonderful people writing about this island and me, I am kind of a "part-time lover" to use the words of Stevie Wonder. Before I go, I really need to say: you should read the blogs I put in my blogroll. On the left-side; the other left! I am very selective, so just expect to find la "creme de la creme...

CMEE Children's Museum of the East End

Image
As a Bnl employee's spouse I take part in some activities connected with the Lab, mainly a playgroup where my kids meet children their age and with a similar background. The playgroup has a designated meeting place but sometimes moms and kids would meet outside, or decide on some specific activity. Bottom line, because of the kids I get to go to places I would not dream of going to - or I wouldn't be allowed in. One of these is the CMEE, the Children's Museum of the East End in Bridgehampton, designed by Lee Skolnick Architecture + Design Partnership . What an amazing place! On a beautifully arranged mix of interactive spaces  children can dress up as princesses or pirates, explore the interior of a submarine, fish, play in the ice-cream parlor, sit in the library, exercise or do crafts. Just to give you a sample of the choices offered . I forgot the fire fighter truck, a hit for Bastian When they say that TV substituted the fire place ...
