First thing we tried to get rush tickets to see the Book of Mormon on Broadway but there were a lot of people there and we didn't manage to get the tickets.
So I've finally got round to uploading some pictures from New York!
We took so many photos while we were there so I'm going to do one post for each day so I can post as many pictures as possible.
First stop, Times Square
This week I finally finished my second attempt at sewing a dress based on a pattern! The last time I used this pattern it was a bit of a disaster and the dress ended up unwearable. I was so disappointed because I really love the way this dress looks. This time though things turned out much better! The dress is actually a bit too big (especially under the arms) but other than that I think it turned out really well. I think i'm going to make a another though since they keep getting better, smaller next time, and I'm proud to say I finally figured out how to sew the zip in properly!
Last night we took our friends on the ferry to the Toronto Islands to watch the sunset. It's no secret that this is one of our favourite places in the city. We didn't have time to make it over to Algonquin Island before the sun went down so this time we just hung around on Olympic Island, fighting off the midges, by the waters edge.
I just wanted to share a few photos from dinner on Saturday night with friends from York who've flown over to Toronto for a conference this week. It's been great seeing them again and taking them to our favourite restaurants.
