"The Canadian is more patriotic than we are!"

Carolynn invited me to go to Brooklyn Bridge Park to watch the Macy's 4th of July Fireworks with herself and her friend Sophie. Sophie, who's from Vancouver, celebrated her first 4th of July with us! They were both so amazing and hilarious. I couldn't have asked for better people to hang out with.

I took out the DSLR for this event, and I am so glad I did. But even the fancy camera wasn't able to capture half the beauty of the show and the views.

There were these boats...

...and they were doing this.

Carolynn, Sophie and me.

"We look like we're photoshopped in!"

So I don't claim to be a photographer, New York is just that photogenic.
If ever there was a photo worthy of #nofilter, this is it.

Let the fireworks commence.

They were even coming off the Brooklyn. Freaking. Bridge.

In a daze.

I think I'm also going to start leaving music/things I like around this blog. Because why not.

Here is "It All Starts Here" by Magic Man, a band that I've been obsessed with for a while. Their new album is dropping July 8th. But they're streaming it for free here. Catch it while it lasts!
