A
little over two weeks ago I took a trip to New York to go to BlogHer12. That
was the purpose of my visit to the big apple, but it is not the only thing that
I did… In fact, I saw quite a lot of the city!
I hung out at
Grand Central Terminal.
I
have to say that my favorite activity that I was able to do (outside of
#BlogHer12) was my lunch at The Boathouse in Central Park. After walking around
in the heat it was pure heaven to be able to sit and relax and take a breath.
We had reservations – which were a breeze to make online! We came early enough
that we got a great seat and were fortunate enough to have our very own celebrity
sighting {Laura Linney} while dining by the water.
I walked through
Central Park.
I saw Ground
Zero and looked at One World Trade Center being constructed.
I went to MOOD
and saw Kenley Collins – from Project Runway!
I had Breakfast
at Tiffany’s.
I ate lunch at
the Boathouse.
I stood atop the
Empire State Building and viewed my all time favorite building ever – the Chrysler
Building… it is one seriously pretty building!
I hung out in
Times Square.
I rocked it out
at Rockefeller Center!
I rode the
Subway.
I even shopped
in the diamond district!
I
don’t care what anyone says about New York, I loved it! I loved the hustle and
bustle of people in constant motion. I loved the architecture of the old school buildings
and the tranquility of Central Park. The people I had the opportunity to talk
to were polite and immensely helpful.
This was a great getaway for me and I
loved every minute of it… But I am very happy to be home and back with my
family. I am just now starting to feel like I am getting back into the swing of
things. BlogHer sure can take it out of you! I can't wait for next year.
Have
you been to NY? If so, what was your favorite place to go? If not, what is the
one place you would HAVE to see?
