Fall in Central Park, NYC in Photos

Enjoyed this post? Give it some love and share!

New York City on any given day can feel like a lot. Which is why the few nature escapes in the city are so invaluable. Places like the beautifully historic Inwood Park, uptown, and then of course, the equally historic Central Park. Despite its complicated and racist history, Central Park has become a haven for urban dwellers who also love nature, for birdwatchers, and even for artists and musicians around the world. I love coming here and losing myself through its many trails, camera in hand.

But no season is more exciting to photograph than fall. If I miss the early morning light, than I wait for the even more perfect late afternoon glow. And Central Park never fails to deliver. Here are some of my favorite shots.

Today, my SIL/BFF @tonijink accidentally FaceTimed Today, my SIL/BFF @tonijink accidentally FaceTimed me while we were out and about. When she saw me on the screen and I panned around to the fam she said, “Look at you all, all showered and happy.” No, sis. We had not showered. We were drenched in SWEAT. If you’ve been living under a rock than you probably don’t know that global warming is real…and it’s here…and sadly Europe, like so much of Mama Earth is feeling it. But this post is not to be a downer. Y’all know what we gotta do. (Psst! It’s to vote out politicians who are not committed to the environmental and global changes to save our planet.) I wanted to share images of our sweaty…and yes, happy selves, and just some of the beauty of today. Also, walking along the East Side Gallery, aka the Berlin Wall and wondering how is it that the world so easily has forgotten that walls just don’t work…but that’s just it about Berlin, isn’t it? It won’t let you forget. Beautiful and scarred, influenced by both its future and its past. A reminder of so much, yet with so much potential…even through the thickness of the humidity and heat, you can feel it. It’s exciting. #berlin #summerinberlin #travelinspiration #europeangetaway #onvacation #familytravel
Photo dump from our first day out and about in Ber Photo dump from our first day out and about in Berlin. Last time I stared up at these gates I was left with tears in my eyes. It was my last day in the city, a beautiful spring day and the sunset was perfect. In fact, the whole city was and I was left with this overwhelming sadness to not be sharing it with my family. And for the first time in my years as a travel blogger, often times alone, I felt an aching pang of loneliness. This moment would be the motivating factor to figure out another way. To travel in a way that made ME happiest and truly fulfilled me. For a lot of people solo travel is their thing. And I think the courage and lessons gained from doing so are powerful and life changing. I am glad to have learned from all the years I did so. But I really most enjoy traveling with my kids or husband. Not necessarily because it’s easier or even cheaper, but because I love watching them navigate these new experiences. I love the easy willingness with which they will practice a local language they’ve never studied on an unsuspecting local just trying to ask them if they are paying cash or card…or the confidence in learning how the local transportation works…or the willingness to try new foods…or the ease with which they roll with mishaps or getting lost or plans not working out, but most of all, I look forward to watching them fall in love with places that I’ve falling in love with, like Berlin, or when we fall in love with a new place together. All this to say, how you travel, how often you travel, where you go, what you spend - these are things that should matter to only you. No one is better or worse, or luckier or less fortunate for doing it differently. I have been to Berlin 3 times. But this moment, with these people, was a dream in the making for years because as great as this city is, they were really the missing link to making it absolutely amazing to be here for me. Can’t wait to share more photos from our shenanigans here! #berlin #germany #familytravel #summertime #returntoberlin #imonvacation

Hello world. I’d like to introduce you to a new Hello world. I’d like to introduce you to a new angel to this world, my beautiful little niece, Solénn 🥰 Did I cry? Of course. She is precious and as the oldest of 10 kids, I got to carry almost all of my siblings when they were this age too and care for them as they grew up. So, it is surreal to now have my “first babies” having babies! ♥️ It’s so sweet and beautiful and man, I can’t wait to see them give it to their parents as much as their parents gave it to me 😂. Being a Titi is the best! #titi #auntie #iwanttoseethebaby #cutebabies
One of the coolest brewery vibes I’ve experience One of the coolest brewery vibes I’ve experienced has been in @bigalicebrewing in Brooklyn, NY (they also have an Queens location). So you know I was excited when they opened up a spot in the Finger Lakes (Geneva)! It’s been a minute since I’ve visited and they’ve expanded their outdoor space (shown here) and now regularly host music as well as a food truck to pair goodies with your brew. The sunsets here are pretty epic too, and it’s such a cool place to chill and be with friends. The staff is also super friendly. Definitely add them to your list of places to check out! Also, kinda have to have a special place in my heart for fellow city-folk who fell in love with this magical place too and are doing awesome things here. 🍻 #flxbrew #fingerlakes #brewery #myflx #beer #geneva
