Summer in New York City!
On our way to get our pedicures, Jean and I had to take a detour because the police blocked two blocks of the street; turned out to be a bomb scare but it was a false alarm.
After being pampered with a pedicure, it’s time to take the subway.
Next stop–downtown Manhattan.
Some fun shopping and sightseeing.
I bought this yellow and black set at Sears in the spring and planned to take it to NYC because I can style it four different ways for four looks. That’s important when I travel so I don’t have to pack as much.
Walking and shopping makes one hungry so we headed over to Peacefood Cafe for a dee-lish-ee-OH-so vegan dinner!
You never know who you’re gonna run into in NYC, last time Bill Murray and this time the world famous GRUMPY CAT!
And to end a lovely day I met two fashionable ladies at the sidewalk restaurant of Chocolat.

I’m glad that in NYC, you’ve been able to wear your outfit in black and yellow. That precious look that you could not wear in the fashion show. That gorgeous look reminiscent of a bee, and the beauty of nature. I loved it when I saw it on
Now in NYC, you can wear it in all your splendor and beauty. A lovely trip, a lovely summer, and a wonderful reunion with Jean, right? Beautiful places, great vegan meals, and lots of fun. Who made your pedicure is an artist, your feet look beautiful. I do not know this cat (in Spain is not known), and not know, ladies, but they all help to make your blog special and different, as I always say. Although, throughout the post, which I like, not to mention your beautiful smile, is the picture of hearts. Carmen and hearts, a wonderful couple.

Thank you dear JM! Grumpy Cat is quite famous in our part of the world. People use her photos for memes all the time. She is actually a very sweet cat and not grumpy at all.
