NYC Part 3

Saturday we started things off by heading to the Metropolitan Museum to enrich our souls by partaking in the beauty of priceless works of art. (And so our whole trip wasn't about shopping and eating) 





New York Bagels. Yum.


Michael decided to drive up from Ohio to surprise us while we were in NYC. The whole crew came up including Mischa who was in town working with the boys. They had to drive all night long to get there.  So we all went to the Smorgasburg in Brooklyn. A summer food fest with about 75 different food vendors.

Maybe my favorite thing I ate the whole trip. Gourmet ice cream sandwich. Oatmeal, chocolate chunk cookies with sea salt. With delicious vanilla ice cream and salted caramel on the inside. Mmm...

The boys really liked the jamaican jerk chicken.









Met up with a friend from Florida who moved to Brooklyn, Jenica Heintzelman.

Even with taking the subway we still walked about 10 miles on Friday and Saturday.


Grand Central Station.


We went to the Upper East side to the oh so famous Laduree (the original is in Paris). The best french macaroons in the world. Mmm...




Hit up another candy store. FAO Schwartz


And we couldn't have gone to NYC without getting some delicious pizza.



Times Square. And yes by Saturday night I had to give in and wear tennis shoes. No more cute shoes.



Sunday we got up and went to Sacrament. It's always so fun to go to church in other states. Then we headed to central park.



We rode the 7 mile loop. It was so fun riding through the park.

Before we could head home we had to try a waldorf salad at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel where the salad was invented.

It didn't actually have any lettuce in the waldorf salad. Apples, celery, grapes and walnuts.

Then sadly it was time to head back home.
We had so much fun on our girls trip!!! We can't wait to go on another one next year.
