Weekend exploring is something we love to do together. Sometimes me more than Shane, but I can usually tempt him to go with the promise of a cold brew coffee. The weeks have been a little busy, especially with Shane getting back into his work groove and quality time, focusing on each other, has to be a little more planned out and intentional. Sometimes I also just get an "itch" to go find something new.
We love finding new coffee shops and since we were on our way to Encanto Park,
Be Coffee + Food + Stuff sounded like fun. A cute little cafe inside the MonOrchid, which is also home to The Bosque (a plant ladies paradise) and The Dressing Room. And that fun bird mural (above) I've been wondering about forever. I had my usual, a decaf iced latte, and Shane joined in the same (caffeine isn't his jam in the afternoon). They didn't disappoint and we've added a new coffee shop corner to our list.
We sat in this little nook and enjoyed each others company. I brought the camera and we laughed when I realized I forgot to put the battery back in before we left the house. It's these times that I enjoy the most, just sitting and enjoying whatever adventure we find, wherever we are. And, I'm getting a lot of use out of my new
Wander with Arrow bag, it's perfect for days like today and I love it.
The day was hot, but we're beginning to feel the crispness of fall move in and it's fun to see what's around the neighborhood. There's so many colorful spaces around downtown, the area has changed so much and has come back to life. There's so much to do and see, but we'll save some for next time.
Finally making our way to
Encanto Park, it was fun to find this gorgeous space to enjoy and wander. We were so excited to see they had paddle boat rentals (we're super excited to try
these paddle boats in Japan) and can't wait to come back for a weekend date adventure. The park is enchanting, and such a gorgeous place to explore in the middle of the city.
