Today with Geetika and Vasanthi, we went to Dia:Beacon. It's a one hour ride by train, North of New York. We rode from East Village to Central Station by bike and skate, and took the Metro-North train. The train follows a beautiful track along the Hudson river, before stopping next to the little town of Beacon. From there we cycled and skated down to the art Centre.

Dia:Beacon is located in a beautiful old factory, and has a lot of exhibitions going on. I especially liked the ones from John Chamberlain, Sol LeWitt, and Richard Serra. It was really hot today, and enjoying the heat and the silence in the park next to the center.

On the way back, we followed the Hudson river for a good ten kilometers, cycling and skating, all the way down to Cold Sring, before hopping into the train back to the city.
