Wonderful Wednesday with Oh My Heartsie Girls

Another beautiful week for all of us here in NYC.
The weather is getting friendlier now and we pretty much enjoy it.
As we are not making any summer trip this time, we manage to stroll around the city and the neighboring city in the quest of beautiful beaches and parks.
Last Saturday, we had so much fun at Jones Beach, Wantagh, NY.




The weather was just perfect as it was not too hot nor cold. Bo et Obi had a blast down there :).



Then on Sunday, we explored Socrates Park in Long Island City.




Quite a unique park with interesting exhibitions this year.


And now, let me invite y'all to our merry, weekly linky party!

But Now.....Let's Party!!…. 

PARTY LINKY

Strolling around Plumb Beach, Brooklyn

#summerisON in New York City.
And while trying to enjoy summer break which will soon end, indeed we need to look for places where the heat is not that painfully scorching.
The beach can be one of the alternatives for that. 
Of course timing is important as well, because if you are heading to the beach in the middle of the way while the sun is burning, then we might not enjoy it at all.




Last weekend, we were escaping the heat by strolling around Plumb beach, Brooklyn, right before sunset. 

We were thinking about playing in Rockaway Beach but since we went there last summer, we stopped at Plumb Beach instead.


welcome...


As we arrived just moments before sunset, we didn't swim but rather played on the beach. Bo et obi were simply running around with their water gun and pails.
I have to admit that the beach is not a typical white-sandy one and rather dirty with all those debris, but being out by the sea with beautiful sunset and the kids are the perks.

enjoying the beach

Here's a few snaps form our last stroll along the Plumb beach.


the shell...

in my purple batik :)


look what we found..

busy checking their pails :)

So, are you ready to join me strolling around Plumb Beach. Brooklyn?
Come down here :)

Join us on Skywatch Friday and have fun bloghopping while enjoying the beautiful skies from many corners of the world!


Coldplay - A Head Full of Dreams Tour 2016




"Here's a little button of love and surprise bracelet for you, courtesy of Coldplay..." Shouted a nice bald man with a black t-shirt who greeted us on the gate of Metlife Stadium.

I looked at my hubby's face and we both broke huge grins.

We are going to watch Coldplay, LIVE!
Coldplay comes to New York City!
Yaaaay...

******

Sudah hampir dua minggu dan saya masih belum bisa move on dari konser keren yang kami nikmati di musim panas kali ini.
COLDPLAY.

Ada yang suka?
Saya dan Rudi ngefans banget, dari jaman pacaran pas band ini baru terbentuk #ketahuandehangkatannya.
Betapa kami sering terharu dengan lirik-lirik sederhana tapi jleb dan falseto Chris Martin yang menghanyutkan, plus permainan musik apik dari grup yang digawangi Chris bersama Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland, dan Will Champion. Tidak heran kalau saya dan my munchkin, suamiku tercinta, semangat '45 waktu tahu mereka akan ke NYC.

One of the concerts that my hubby and I are waiting for, Coldplay - Head Full of Dreams Tour 2016, is totally awesome.

we got the ticket :)

Since last December 2015, we had been eyeing this concert. I have to admit that For this time, my hubby agreed to come along. Remember I had a blast on Beyonce's - Lemonade 2016 concert last May? Read the story I went there with my friends. For that concert,  my hubby was not as eager as me, but it didn't take long for him to say yes for Coldplay.




So, we got the ticket and months later, the day is coming!

We had the show on Saturday, July 16.
Rain or shine, baby...whatever happens, the concert is indeed on.
You can tell how excited we both are!
Before we got married, and in our first couple of years of marriage, Udi and I loved to go to concerts.
Coldplay, here we comeeeee :)
As it was held in Metlife Stadium, East Rutherford, New Jersey, we managed to drive there with our friends, 7 in total, including one bebe :).


courtesy of Coldplay...
Metlife was filling up fast.
And I'm not surprised if the concert was sold out.
That huge stadium was packed.
We can feel the vibe, the love...the enthusiasm, delight.
The uplifting spirit that makes my hubby and I happily grinned almost all night long.


As the opening, we have Foxes and Alessia Cara. 
As new comers, they're good.
They surely got the attention of the audience although the stadium was not full yet.
Really enjoy Cara's hits, Here :).

We managed to have our quick dinner, if' not just snack :), of hot dogs and chips. Super healthy yeah >_< but it was just for that night. That one special night.
While waiting for the concert, we enjoyed the glittering sky as the sun set.

Then, at around 9.30, our surprise bracelet lit up.
Beautifully.
Coldplay is here...yaaaaaay.
And the concert started.


the second song, Yellow :)

And nothing else I remembered but singing along with Chris, my hubby and thousands of people, old and young, in the stadium. 


Holding hands with Udi, we sang all night long on top of our lungs, 
What a delightful feeling!



If only you could see the roaring cheers as our bracelet lighted up and the music intro echoed all over the stadium paired with uber-cool visual effects on those giant screens on the stage.


Opening with a bang, fire works and great light show, A Head full of Dream opened the concert that night, followed by Yellow, one of my favorite tracks from Coldplay.


Then the whole night was lit up with colorful light shows, coming from our cool bracelets, as well as the top-notch laser shows from the stage. I forgot to count how many hits they played but I remembered vividly sang along on "Every Teardrop is a Waterfall, the Scientists, and Paradise. Cool clips with Beyonce were shown when "Hymn for the Weekend" was played. Then we enjoyed Clocks, Viva la Vida, Charlie Brown and A Sky Full of Stars.




Chris was 'chatting' with us, his fans as well, in the middle of the concert. Introducing the band and spoke more about how he enjoyed NYC and the series of concert they will have in the US.




Then the music continued, even as they changed the stages.



I think it was three times when they moved around and performed more songs that night.
They also sang a special request from instagram.

I didn't want this concert to end :).
I didn't want to stop singing.
I didn't want to go home.

But of course, all the good things have to come to an end.
So, thank you very much, Coldplay, for such an unforgettable night.

Hope to see you around....soon :).

New York City, #stillsingingalong

Wonderful Wednesday with Oh My Heartsie Girls

How's your summer?
I hope it's as wonderful as you want it to be.
New York City is burning hot and humid, so I guess I have to manage our outdoor activities to avoid the extra heat. Good thing I still have a few meetings that keep me confined in an air-con room. Hah!

But this week has been uber cool as my hubby and I watched Coldplay. 



Yes, Coldplay! 
How We loved their concert. Top-notch, platinum class musical performance that my hubby and I truly enjoyed.
Will share more details right away.


enjoying Coldplay to the max...


But now, time to party!
