{Travel} Birthday Weekend in NYC

We got to celebrate City Girl #1's birthday in NYC a few weeks ago. 

We stayed at an old favorite, The Conrad Midtown.  I love the vibe of the hotel and the spacious rooms.

I was feeling very stripe-y in the entryway mirror.

As you can see by my hair in the above shot it was raining that day. LOTS of rain. We made our way over to meet the girls at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

We were there mostly for the Women Dressing Women Exhibit.

It was a very cool exhibit full of female designers' creations.

I didn't know a lot of them but City Girl did.

In our favorite part of the museum.

We toured around some more, soaking up all of the art.

It really is a beautiful museum and a perfect place to spend a rainy afternoon in NYC.

City Girls 1 & 2.

We had reservations at Scarpetta for dinner.   It's great for celebrating a special occasion.

The birthday girl and our yummy desserts.   After dinner we headed back to the hotel --our bellies full and our feet tired!

Waking up with some fancy coffee in the room

Another selfie before we went out for a walk.

There was sunshine!!  Our hotel was near Times Square and we walked around a bit. It's not so crazy in the morning.

We checked out of our hotel and did a little more exploring...

...before meeting up for brunch at Village Taverna with the girls.  It was close to campus and CG 1 was studying so it was a good place to meet her.

I got the vegetable moussaka...it was so good! After brunch we went to Penn Station and took the train home. Another fun birthday weekend on the books!
