My girlfriend and I celebrated our one year of love in NYC this weekend.

First it was Little Italy for an Italian Festival. Afterward, we walked down to China Town so I could play a few games at the Mott St. arcade. Next, we met up with Calc for some drinks and snacks at Crif Dogs at St. Marks. Check out the original Donkey Kong arcade machine as our dinner table.

Next morning, kicked off the day with some Mimosa’s

And finally, before heading home we did some window shopping in SoHo. Successful weekend I’d say.

The record summer temperature in Central Park was a blistering 106 degrees in 1936. Well today it’s officially 103+ degrees and it feels like death.

Here’s some cool shit you can do during a heatwave in the city:

Head to a local swimming pool or beach to cool off. During heat emergencies, New York City pools and beaches are open late and often offer free or reduced admission.

Find a cooling center. During heat emergencies, New York City opens air-conditioned cooling centers around the five boroughs where residents can find a break from the heat. Find the cooling center nearest you.
