My best hour this week ☀️⛱️ or maybe two that I sp My best hour this week ☀️⛱️
or maybe two that I spent next to Gansevoort Beach on the Hudson River (aka the West Side of Manhattan). Before the daycare called us to pick up one sick girl and I've since spent two days at home. 😟

But yeah, I highly recommend the Hudson River Park for breaks in the sun. There are restrooms and cafés, nice playgrounds, benches, and even a beach (although you can't go swimming there). And let's not forget the views 🤩

The Flat Iron District at night.
The High Line.
And always coffee.

A good old fashion haul 🛍 with everything I brough A good old fashion haul 🛍 with everything I brought from the brand-new Primark flagship store here in Midtown Manhattan:

- handbags 👛
- clothes for the girls 👕🩳
- slippers 🩴
- tops 👚
- bath bombs 🦋
... and Lotti definitely felt very left out 😸

In the end, I feel I did well as I didn't buy blindly and too much. The girls absolutely love their new stuff.

Can you guess how much I paid in total? ⬇️
