Stranger Things on Broadway - again!

 I got to see Stranger Things The First Shadow on Broadway- again!

The last time I saw it was in June with City Girl #1.  This time I won the ticket lottery and took Mr. Click. 

It was a rainy weekend and getting to see a Broadway show was the perfect outing for a Sunday. We started our trip on the train in rainy NJ.

It had stopped raining when we got into NYC so we walked to the Marquis Theatre.

I didn't take as many photos of the theatre this time so if you are curious about it, you can see it all here.

I was excited for Mr. Click to see the show and I was excited to see it again-after watching season 5 of Stranger Things.

We had great seats and they are quite comfortable for theatre seats with more legroom than most.   The show was fantastic again and Mr. Click loved it.

We weren't planning to have dinner in the city but the sun had come out and it was so warm that we decided to stay in the city a little longer to enjoy the weather.

I had a list of places to try on my phone and we tried Bocca di Bacco. The service and food were great!   Another fun day in the city!

Easter at The Brooklyn Bonatic Garden

 We were heading back to Brooklyn for Easter this year.

I got in the spirit with some bunny ears.

Willow was not amused.

Getting a few pics before we left.

This tree only blooms for a few days so I like to get a photo of it in bloom. I had Easter baskets for the girls.  It was fun to put some together this year.

We had a little moving to do with City Girl 2 at her old place .  

Of course we stopped for coffee.

I got an iced tea.

We had tickets for the Booklyn Botanic Garden and it was our first visit.

It was beautiful even in early Spring.

Tulips!

It's sure to be even prettier in a few weeks.

I loved these soft yellow flowers.

Of course there were daffodils...

some forget-me-nots...

More daffodils..

The cherry blossoms were in full bloom.

We stopped at the Terrain gift shop on the way out.  We went to brunch afterwards but it was pouring so I didn't get any more photos.
 I can't wait to go back!

Have you ever been to a botanic or botanical garden?

NYC For a Night and Moving Adventures

 It was a whirlwind couple of weekends moving City Girl #2 into her new place. I also squeezed in a night in the Big Apple while Mr. Click was there for a conference.

We took many trips between the two apartments.

We discovered a new coffee shop and it helped fuel our days.

We took a break for lunch and had some yummy tacos, guac and a spicy margarita.

Mr. Click had a conference in NYC and I came up for one of the nights. I got to see both of the girls. I navigated the subways by myself which felt like a major accomplishment.  I explored the French department store Printemps. It was so gorgeous.

I would love to have a drink at Red Room Bar sometime. Super fancy!

I met City Girl #1 for coffee at Maman in FiDi.   It was the prettiest cafe. She had plans that night so she couldn't meet me for dinner.

After she went back to work, I explored a bit and checked out the NY Stock Exchange.

Trinity Church

I only had a few hours before meeting up with CG #2 so I headed her way and to do some shopping in Union Square. I spent most of my time at Muji (one of my favorite stores!)  We had a lovely dinner at Osteria Figa.

I found my way back to the hotel.  (This was walking through Times Square to get there).

Mr. Click met me back at the hotel and we had a glass of wine at the bar. 

The view from the room.

That weekend we were back in Brooklyn for more moving. She is now settled in her new place and loves it!

NYC Birthday Celebration

 We celebrated City Girl #1's birthday in NYC on one of the coldest days of the year.

We were warned via the family group text to be prepared so I was bundled up for the trip.

On the train!  We got into Penn Station a little early and got some coffee. We also walked over to Old Navy to look for mittens for me because I was having a hard time getting my glove over my wrist brace (we didn't find any but it was ok-we figured it out).

We met up with the girls at the theatre.  

We were excited to see Maybe Happy Ending.

We'd heard lots of good things but I didn't have any idea what the show was about. It was fun to see Darren Criss in one of the lead roles!

The set design is incredible and show was so unique and different. I loved it!

We had some time before our dinner reservation so we stopped in at Junglebird for a drink. Mine was called a Hot Blooded and it had apple brandy, spiced run, peach liqueur, black tea & turmeric butter.  It definitely warmed me up.

We had a really good dinner at Cucina Alba. We ordered a lot of different things and shared it all.  

Of course we had to get some dessert to celebrate the birthday girl!  We ubered back to Penn Station, did a little shopping while we waited for our train and were home by 11pm.   It was a great night!!
