A Trip Uptown

 During the week, I mostly feel like a hermit because I stay in and sit on my computer after work, as though I'm hiding from the world. I like weekends to be a different story though. Yesterday, to remedy a week spent indoors, I headed uptown with a couple of friends to the Cloisters.

The Cloisters, located in Fort Tryon park, are a part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art that were built to showcase Medieval artwork and architecture - not just with artwork on the walls or in cases but doorways and other building elements from the time period. It also features some gorgeous gardens and a view of the Hudson. A warm, sunny day was the perfect time to head up there.

People who think that New York isn't beautiful...well, they just aren't looking hard enough.
