We took seven days to drive over three thousand miles, across ten different states, visit four national parks and three national moments! This is the first half of our trip..
i love to eat and travel and document as much of it as i can.
All in coffee
one of our favorite coffee shops just opened up a heckuva lot closer to us!
we spent one and a half days in seattle on our way to iceland, arriving early one morning and leaving late the next afternoon. that means two chances for coffee and brunch!
brooklyn's popular weekly smorgasburg market opened in LA at the alameda produce market! the weather was over 100 degrees, but there were still lots of people out to get their bagels, lobsters, pizza, ramen burgers, coffee, noodle bowls, tacos, banh mi, hot dogs, poke, popsicles, etc!
the beautiful new civil coffee opened in highland park a couple weekends ago and we went on opening day to check it out!
when g&b first opened at grand central market, they always said they were eventually going to tear down the existing stall and create a full 360 degree bar.
only a couple weeks after blue bottle coffee opened their echo park location, alfred coffee opened up a cute little shop in silverlake! love the coffee love that the east side is getting.
we needed a pick-me-up on a hot saturday afternoon, so we ventured over to the newly opened location of blue bottle coffee in echo park. the space in the historic jensen recreation building and is a bright, clean, industrial space filled with natural light and lots of seating options.
it took some time before i could commit to at least two hours of driving just for coffee and doughnuts. but this past saturday, we finally did it!
