Rain and NYC but not together

Rain would be the word that I would be if one asked me how the summer has been so far. Rain, rain and even more rain oh and coldish, I mean, not really hot. However, I have to admit that I managed to get away from the intense rain: I drive a lot for work and most of the time, I ended up going to places where it was not raining while it was pouring rain in Montreal. It's great when I'm working and that I am not doing inspections (driving in the rain is not my favourite thing): it doesn't feel really bad to be in an office when the weaher is not nice outside. But I have to say that this summer at the office has been amazingly different and I don't know if it's in a good or in a bad way. It might not help that the people working at the office have changed: a lot left and there are a few new ones.

I also spent few days in the States during the weekend: we went to see my grandma's sister and her family. We spent Saturday in Long Island, it was raining for a good part of the day but at least it was sunny in late afternoon: the house was sort of crowded. My cousin was sort of surprised to see that my sister and I could actually speak English. Then on Sunday, we went to Manhattan and we walked around Central Park and in Upper West Side. It's a part of Manhattan where I never went to and it was quite fun. We also went to Times Square after diner and that was the coolest part of the day, I wished that we could have spent a bit more time there, but going there was great. I managed to take few good shots, a lot more have been posted on my Facebook page.



And for this rainy weekend, I'm going to spend few days at home, as summer comes to an end really soon and it might become a bit hard to go home. Plus most, if not almost all my friends, are outside the city this weekend, so it can be sort of boring (they've been outside Montreal during lots of weekends)... despite the long bus ride, it should be good to spend a bit of time at home.
