Apple and Tonic

Yes, that's right. I, Jenn MarTONIC went to New York - the Big APPLE over Memorial Day Weekend. It was nice to get out of Minneapolis and away from work for a weekend ... and best of all I got to see Anne!! And Vahbiz!!

Ahh New York ... no city quite like it.


I got there on a friday evening and braved the subway with my suitcase into Brooklyn to meet up with Anne. We had a nice Tai food dinner then cruised some of the very chill bars in the area. We ended up meeting these guys who were in town from LA and played the Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon game. If anyone can tell me movies that Mary Stewart Masterson is in AND another star in said movie it would be greatly appreciated. :)

Saturday day we walked around and saw M:i:III in Times Square. Pretty good movie, despite the fact that Mr. Crazy stars in it. Then Sat night was a little MAS reunion. We first went to the Chelsea Pier to this bar called The Frying Pan. It was nice to be outside and be with friends *aww*.

Here is me and a drunk Josh (Anne and I were running on Anne & Jenn time which is about an hour later than everyone else, so by the time we got there Josh and Danny were pretty wasted. It was Danny's birthday weekend after all)


And here is Josh demonstrating his heightened sense of animation.


He also wanted to pose with everyone... so here are some pics of him and Anne. They work together in NY.
Can't you see the creative love!






And Vahbiz!!! It was so nice to see her again. Here she is hamming it up for the camera.


Aww, aren't we cute.


It's the BLH - together again!!


On Sunday Anne and I had a leisurely brunch out on a pier near downtown. It was such a beautiful day outside we decided to go out onto the pier and do some people watching. Blue skies!




It was also fleet week in NYC - meaning there were ships and tons of sailors all over the place. And if that's your thing, you would be pretty happy. Unfortunately for me ... it's not my cup of tea. Here is a pic of one of the older ships against the skyline of the city.


There was a balloon man making all sorts of things for the kids - and I saw these two cute little boys having a sword fight with their new balloon "weapons".


The Brooklyn Bridge!


We did some shopping and then had dinner at a great place called Lil Frankies. I recommend it if you are in the city. Italian food - mmm mmmm good.

Then on Monday it was time for me to fly back to Minne. Here is my last shot of the trip, in the JFK airport awaiting my Sun Country flight back...
