Visitors - It runs in the family - Part 2

Next visitors in my amateur Bed & Breakfast were my brother Arnout and his wife, Marieke. For Arnout it was his first time NYC experience, for Marieke it had been quite a while ago. It was great to see that they felt at home and comfortable as soon as they arrived! The first evening we had some drinks at the Hudson Hotel around the corner and a nice diner before falling asleep.

The weekend we explored Soho and down town. We took the Water taxi from South Street Sea Port around the south end of Manhattan and jumped off at Pier 66. There we discovered the most cool place to have a Corona on a sunny afternoon: The Frying Pan. A live band played and we had a great time drinking a beer in the sun, watching and being watched.
On Sunday morning A & M went to a gospel church up in Harlem while I did some morning after recovering... We lunched together in Central Park and had a traditional Sunday afternoon in Felix.

During the day I worked and we did some great stuff together in the evenings. We went to Avenue Q, the 'puppets' musical and we had a super delicious diner in Buddakan. Arnout and I went to the Chart House restaurant for a brother bonding evening in Jersey, at the other side of the Hudson river with amazing views of Manhattan during sunset. A & M shopped till they dropped in the Premium Outlet village and in the City, we saw the TAO restaurant and we browsed through the Village with its street fair, Magnolia Bakery and a nice lunch at Le Pain Quotidien.

The last afternoon for A & M we spent again at the Frying Pan, our favorite late afternoon spot before putting them in a yellow cab, back to JFK for the ride home.

Ar & Jens, I enjoyed every minute of the time we spent together, super relaxed and great stuff!
