Les bombardiers

After riding the ferry back from Governor's Island we were both starving. After all, it was time for dinner and the hot dogs we bought from the cart at the ferry terminal were hours gone. So we went in search of something more substantial and, on the advice of my friend Rachel who lives in Manhatten, we went to S'Mac for some gourmet mac and cheese. It was pretty good stuff- I had Mediterranean M&C (goat cheese, sauteed spinach, kalamata olives and garlic), and Christina had buffalo chicken M&C (she didn't think about it being spicy hot, but she ate it anyway with tears welling up in her little eyes!).

By the time we were done it was bedtime for her. Unfortunately she was fast asleep when I heard the explosions as I posted these blog pictures. I looked out the window to see, way down by Battery Park, les bombardiers painting the sky with fireworks. I snapped a few pics, like the one above, but mostly I just stood at the window and enjoyed the spectacle of fireworks over the New York skyline. What a fitting end to an exciting day!

In the morning I'm going to run around Central Park before Christina wakes up. More tomorrow.
