Ethan is really into architecture right now so I took plenty of the houses and the detail on them. We walked the Battery three times. It is so beautiful to have these houses on one side and walk along the water. I love the ocean, the smell of the water and the feel of it in the air. I love old houses like these so it was the best of both worlds for both of us.
Our walking tour ended at the Battery during low tide. There were dolphins swimming right by the shore. I have never seen them that close it was so neat. That I don't have pictures of, I was too busy just standing there in awe. So here are a few of my favorites from our walks and the gardens of the historic homes. Enjoy!

Cobblestone streets...
with iron work everywhere
Favorite garden pictures....
Love these palms below.
I believe this is Crepe Myrtle (?). It was all over the trees. Our tour guide said it flowers for about 4 months and you will see it in different colors.
Help, what is this? Some sort of fig? I saw these in a couple of the yards of the homes we toured.
