Since this was my first visit to Brooklyn, let alone to my friend now living there, we had a good wander around the area. There were tons of restaurants close by and we did a bit of walking to get breakfast, go to the food store to make dinner, and just check out the scenery. Since it's so close to go for a visit (and not terribly difficult to navigate by car), hopefully I'll get to pop up there and do some more exploring in the not too distant future.

It was a really close game but Poly pulled ahead of Brooklyn at the very last few minutes. I hadn't been to a college basketball game in a while, so it was nice to enjoy all the fans getting into it and rooting for their teams.

I headed up to Brooklyn for the weekend to visit a friend of mine from high school that I hadn't seen in a while. She recently moved down from Boston, so I figured it would be a good time to visit since it's a lot closer. A quick Starbucks run was in order prior to seeing the women's basketball game between Polytechnic Institute and Brooklyn College that her sister was playing in. We enjoy a few quick sips outside during probably the last crisp weekend before the weather turns cold. (I feel like I've been saying this for months, but we did have a really mild fall compared to what it usually is.)
