Day 3 New York adventure.

Staying at Denise and Jason's reminded me of the good old days when I was their age and living in apartments that were sweltering in the summers.  It is still in the 80's here.  Hoping that Ireland will be cooler.

This morning we were off to the Brooklyn flea market.  It recently moved to a little different location.  It was right on the river with a great view of Manhattan.




Lots of food vendors at the market, and quite a few antique vendors. When we were done there Jason and Denise didn't seem sure what to do next.  But the weekend before they had gone to upstate New York with some friends.  So we headed to a town where they knew there were a lot of antique shops, Cold Spring.  It is right across the river from West Point.  I was surprised by the mountains and understood now the draw to the Hudson River painters.






We found one more flea market but the vendors were beginning to shut down so we had a quick look and then headed back to the City.

All in all a fun day.
