Today’s Bridge 5.1.11

Happy May! I can hardly believe that it is already May… I’ve been super busy preparing for the National Stationery Show — that’s in 2 weeks! Yesterday, I took a little much-needed break during the day and went to Cherry Blossom Festival. (Photos to come) On the way there, I bumped into a HUGE crowd of Bike New York! Do you see the Front Street is filled with bikes under the Manhattan Bridge? The other side of the street below.

Found Marquee H

Walking down on Water Street, I found this marquee H on the window. I think this is from Urban Outfitters (I’ve been eying for a long time) — made me want it even more!

The window is for Henryboy. I think they just moved in…

Spring Has Sprung

Yesterday was so hot and sunny (83 degrees!) — I was so swamped all day inside, but I needed to go to post office anyway so I went outside with Maia and wow, spring was in full swing! I couldn’t help snapping few pictures here and there, I just love the visible change on earth, so very lively and gives me such an energy!

First few are from Brooklyn War Memorial Park on Cadman Plaza. The cherry blossom tree was in full bloom (above) and so many dandelion flowers are everywhere on the grass (below).

Maia loved it :)

These next few are from right by the Brooklyn Bridge entrance on Washington Street. It was like this in December.

I guess they are planting lots of trees now (the orange parts you see)…
The pink flower colors on green and on blue sky really caught my eye and made me happy :)

Bubby’s Store Sign in DUMBO

I’m assuming this is their store sign… a life size cow! Creative way to have your store sign, don’t you think? In front of Bubby’s in DUMBO. We had their BBQ dinner the other day — yummy stuff! :)
