    Boston – Massachusetts | Part I

    September 14, 2009 /

    I’ll finally post the pictures of Boston, not that it’s been as long as we went (2 weekends ago) but the fact is we went that last weekend to Chicago. Yes, another lightning trip and with lots of pictures. We had already scheduled this trip since April, I think, that was when we bought tickets from U2, which played there on Saturday. Well, that’s all, it’s history for another post in the not-too-distant future. See the first post from Chicago here! So, Boston. On the weekend of the holiday (September 7 is labor day in Canada and usa), we went to celebrate Diego’s birthday traveling.. Wow!… The destination chosen half…

    Philadelphia and Washington!

    April 19, 2009 /

    Hey, guys! Over easter weekend we went to visit the city of Philadelphia and Washington. It was my birthday present, which was March 29th. Ehhh!! Loved! We woke up at 3:00 a.m. on April 10th, heading to Ottawa Airport. We left the car there at Park and Fly and at 6:00 a.m. we were flying to Detroit where we made a stopover. We arrived at the hotel room in Philadelphia at exactly noon and the saga began. By the way, the hotel was super cool, had a king size bed that was a luxury and a comfort only… Hehe Oh, Dexter stayed at Ivan and Ju’s, along with their kittens,…

    New York City – Part 3

    November 25, 2008 /

    Sunday OK, follow what was missing from the race trip to New York. On Sunday we went to the Empire State Building, Statue of Liberty, Wall Street, World Trade Center, Chinatown and SoHo. As they say that a picture is worth a thousand words, follow the photos of the tour. 🙂 We arrived at the Empire State Building as soon as it opened in the morning, which was a good one, because when we went down the line was already leaving the building (they say that on the worst days she makes a whole turn on the court and is at the door again) View of the observatory on the…

    New York City – Part 2

    November 18, 2008 /

    Saturday The rainy day started and changed our plans to go early to the Empire State Buiding. So as soon as we got to Manhattan, we were following as far as the rain made possible, the script diego had created. The summary of the day was muiiiita walk, subway ride to the totally opposite side and feet on fire, but above all, various places visited, that was the intention. Well, then follow the pictures with the comments. Headquarters of The New York Times Times Square in broad daylight… New York Public Library In the background, covered by the clouds, is the Empire State Building. Chrysler Building, New Grand Central Terminal…

    Hi all We're back with news from the States… weekend full of news, we went to New York City for 3 days. Tell me about it!! What city!! Wow!!

Well, here goes a day-to-day of what we did there. FRIDAY We left Ottawa at 3:00. to Woodbury Common Premium Outlets that gets in the way of the Big Apple. The border with the USA was only 1h30min from here and the passage was…
