Cool spots we visited on Sunday

Pylones. S got a robot that is a pencil sharpener. A got a bubble shaped as a princess, filled with soap. I got a sumo wrestler key chain. Lots and lots of fun.

Mercadito Grove. Good Mexican. Tiny and way too expensive (seriously. I couldn't raise a family in NY. We like to eat out way too much. $71 for a meal that included one entree split between 2 children?!) But enough venting. We didn't have any delicious food in the city except for this meal. And they have a great sidewalk dining area, which was perfect for soaking up that warm sun.

Grace Episcopal on Broadway. This is obviously a gorgeous 200 year old church with lots of cool history. But what made it lovely yesterday was this: the boys' choir was practicing when we ducked into the sanctuary. How could 8-10 pre-adolescent little boys make such a beautiful noise? I've never heard anything but annoying noises from the ones I'm acquainted with. Truly serendipitous.
