Autumn in New York Weekend 2009

Aloha Kakou!
It's been a while I know, and what have I been up to lately? Well, I went from a gorgeous weather in paradise = Hilo, Hawai'i, to a wet and chilly weather in Larchmont, New York!

Aloha!　ご無沙汰です♪　最近なにをしていたかって、実はハワイ島ヒロのこんなゴージャスなお天気から雨降りのさむ～いニューヨークのラーチモントという
私の育った「故郷」へ高校卒業30周年の同窓会へ出席する為に戻っています！



There was a very good reason for that... I came back to my hometown, Larchmont where I grew up, to attend the 30th High School Reunion with my Mamaroneck High School Classmates (and stop counting the years ya'll!!)

懐かしいラーチモントの町並み・・・







Farmer's Market right above the train station.

昔は無かった朝市が土曜日の朝に開催されていました。










The mushroom quiche made by this French chef was delicious.

ここのフランス人の作るキーシュやパティセリは美味しかったです♪














And here we are at Larchmont Yacht Club for the 30th Reunion! It was a blast. It was so good and I was so busy catching up that I forgot to take any photos!

仲良し4人組がラーチモント･ヨット･クラブにて集結。余りにも楽しかったので写真魔の私もしばしカメラのことは忘れました！






And of course, one night just wasn't enough to catch up with all so we got together at Chat 19 for Sunday Brunch and had another fabulous time catching up with each other and making new found bonds.

そして次の日の日曜日もブランチに同級生と集結。又もや楽しい時があっという間に過ぎました。３０年経ったとは思えないほど。





Afterwards, my friends took me to a nostalgia drive through Larchmont, taking me to all the places filled with memories, and it was gorgeous!
















そして思い出一杯のノスタルジア･ドライブに友達が連れてってくれました。この時期ニューヨークの紅葉はやはり最高！











And this is my Alma mater, Mamaroneck High School. the same school as Norman Rockwell (the artist) and Matt Dillon (the actor).

これがママロネック･ハイ･スクールで～す！
俳優のマット･ディロンは後輩だよ～ん。





























My friends came to the train station to see me off to NYC, my next destination!


































And here I am now in Park Slopes, Brooklyn. My friends, Michael and Amy who are awesome cook hosts!

















And today I went to Sweet Melissa's and had a Champagne Tea... it was simply delicious.
























More to follow....

続く・・・　お楽しみに♪
