round in circles

Time for something sweet. At the weekend, Phoebe and I went to a short cake decorating class run by Carlo's Bakery of Cake Boss fame (Phoebe's favourite programme during exam revision). It was supposed to be a Memorial Day cake, but I went circular instead of starry. We didn't get into the bakery - we couldn't believe the queue to get in and didn't join it. But I was happy enough just to have a look at the amazing Hoboken Terminal (even though it's not yet back to normal after Hurricane Sandy), imagine Marlon Brando on the waterfront, and see Manhattan from the other side of the river.

We're back from NYC now, tired and with jet-lagged eyes that feel like they are going round in cricles, but having had a wonderful time.
