The Hamptons
This weekend I had so much fun living it up in the Hamptons with my parents. Okay... just kidding we didn't exactly "live it up" in the Hamptons because you can't really do that unless you have a 100 million dollars. I felt like a peasant driving in our rental car driving next to convertible BMWS and Range Rovers! It seems that unless you have a home or a membership to a private resort then there isn't a ton do to. Or if there is a lot to do, we were totally unaware. We probably should have research the Hamptons before we arrived but we did find a beach that wasn't private and we did drive past Sandra Bullocks home! I was completely satisfied. It was nice to get out of the city for at least a day. I have always been curious about the Hamptons. I watch Gossip Girl and Revenge and both shows take place there. However, come to find out Revenge isn't actually filmed in the Hamptons. We looked it up and it is filmed in North Carolina. My dad was probably the most dissapointed. He loves Revenge and he thought we were going to walk away with legitimate tv show souvenirs....
After spending the afternoon at the beach, we stopped in to a cute/expensive Italian restaurant for dinner. If there is one thing we did right this weekend, it choosing places to eat. Everything we ate was amazing!

It is a little stressful when I have visitors come to town because I feel like it is up to me to give them the greatest New York experience possible. My parents have been to Manhattan so many times, finding something they haven't done before was difficult. Turns out, in their many ravels to NY they have never been to good ole Brooklyn. Brooklyn Bridge Park is one of my favorite spots because I love the view of Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge from this park!
