Christo's and Jeanne-Claude's Gates

I spent the weekend in NYC with my Aunt and Step Dad. Saturday was a great day to stroll through Central Park and wind through the swirling maze of saffron! It was amazing! There were so many people and so much energy. Late afternoon was really nice because the sun was showing through the fabric and casting wonderful shadows from the trees. We went to the Met and checked out the exhibition of Ruben's drawings and then back through Central Park on the way home after dark. Walking under the gates at night was entirely different from the daytime. It was quite a contrast, everyone had cleared out and the wind died down, so it was very still and serene. After that, we went off to Queens for some excellent Italian food and wine! Yummy!
