The Christmas light House in the Bronx is a neighborhood fixture that is hard to miss. It is decorated year round with life size statues and is painted  bright pink. Though it draws most of its audience during the holidays it is an anomaly throughout the seasons. Such a bizarre place with such exuberant colors and vibrancy attracts an artists eye and will draw you in.

Prospect Park is a great place to have a water balloon fight, a picnic, a jog, and play with other people's dogs.

Words cannot describe how much I love biking in the city.
