Weather Just Nice Enough to Spend Whole Day Outside
Humidity drops, family toodles around on bikes all day
The Daily Kina
We here at the Daily Kina welcome the one-day break in this epic heat wave, which gave us the freedom to bike all over Manhattan yesterday, buying light-up shoes and stamps1 and getting our hair cut and eating some bangin’ fish ball soup and just generally toodling around. Laurea was lucky enough to score three consecutive fancy electric Citibikes, so we all got to feel the wind in our hair as we cruised around the tip of Manhattan, with Kina wearing my sunglasses and fish balls in our tummies. Not pictured: our final stop at Little Owl, where Kina complained that our table smelled like eggs.
After shopping for stamps (as noted in today’s edition), Kina and I agreed that the week’s Parade simply had to be made of rubber stamps and watercolors. And so it was.

A special but of love goes out to Mr. John Casey of Casey’s Rubber Stamps, who insisted that Kina call him John and return in twenty years with her own money. There are few like him, and you should visit.
