Sorry it’s been so quiet around here lately. This lucky girl got to go on not one, not two, but THREE extended weekends in a row so far this summer.
The first weekend I went with two of my friends to Vermont to attend the Wanderlust yoga festival. The following week, Jim and I had a wedding to attend in Philly so we hit up the city of brotherly love for a few extra days. Lastly, over July 4th Jim and I did our now annual trek to Boston to celebrate the Independence Day holiday. We love Boston during July 4th because majority the historical sites important to our country’s independence are right there and we are big time history nerds.
I’m finally back in Brooklyn with no joke, around 800 photos to sort through. I suspect that’s going to take me a while, so for now I wanted to share some of the highlights of each weekend via Instagram.
Left to Right, Top to Bottom // The lodge where we took our first yoga class / Vegan, gluten-free pizza by Pizza for the People / Our pre-hike “hydration” / Gorgeous view at the top of Stratton, which made the difficult hike worth it!
Left to Right, Top to Bottom // The Philly skyline on our first day / Eastern State Penitentiary, by far one of my favorite highlights of summer so far / Vegan ice-cream at Little Baby’s Ice Cream / The Sphinx at the Penn Museum at Penn University

Not sure if you’re into haunted houses but Eastern State Penitentiary puts together a great one during October and November!
I LOVE anything haunted! Ill be sure to check that out.
It’s definitely worth the trip! They do a great job at using the prison the way it is but also adding scary things where you least expect
What a fun way to show all of your adventures! Love it.
Yay! Welcome Back! :]
