A quick note
Sorry about the lack of photographs below. Either my phone or my blog has been working incorrectly, I'm not sure which, because my usual method of e-mailing photos to my blog is not working. A pity.

Back to New York
Sorry, I didn't document this vacation nearly as well as the last one, however, here are a few photographs illustrating the highlights:
The Chinatown bus arrived in New York at 1:30, at which time we met David at a vegetarian dim sum restaurant. My vote is: unremarkable. It was pretty good, but Home On 8th is better, in my opinion. My favourites were the steamed buns with "pork." I took a picture of this meal, but alas, I accidentally deleted it. Here's David at the restaurant:
Next, while Dad dropped off our bags at Lawrence's apartment, David took Ezra and me to a delightful place called "Cake Shop." Here is the most amazing vegan peanut butter cake EVER:
And an earl grey tea:
It's really extremely cool. It's sort of a combination cafe and record store with a bar in the basement.
We took a lovely walk in the East Village and ended up in this park, where we played catch with a water bottle and discussed various methods of torture.
Later, we met up with our awesome friends Leander and Marlowe, and took them to our favourite spot for bubble tea: St's Alp Teahouse. Leander thinks: terrific. Marlowe: not sure.
I am so sad to be back.

Video project
Despite the fact that I am currently in French 1, I am making an approximately 10-minute-long film for school. It is entirely in French and stars Ezra as Guy, Marlowe as Philippe, Leander as Andre, and Miss Gliss as Oncle Olivier. I happen to not know how to use a camera or editing software, but I still think it should come out well. We filmed all weekend.
Highlights of filming include Miss Gliss's mustache (drawn on with black pen,) Ezra and Leander's version of "That's How It Is," several fight scenes, and the line "Notre vie et bon! Nous avons notre PlayStation, des hamburgers, et rap... et les planches a roulettes," (which no one could say quite like Leander.)
