So about a year ago I met some lovely ladies here in town, and we wanted to go out to eat, so we did. While eating we were talking about where we have lived and places we wanted to visit, dream destinations kind of thing. Well it did come up that I had just moved from New York City and I missed it dearly and wanted to go back so bad. Turns out the other girls wanted to go too....so we kinda just decided to do a Girls Weekend up there a few months later!!!!! It was spontaneous and amazing.
I drove, because it was cheaper AND our hotel we found had valet parking which wasn't too pricey for every day, we were there for two full days. Here we are on our way up to New York!!! Surprisingly it didn't take too long, just 4-5 hours away...depending on traffic.
We made it back to the city!!!! I was so excited to be there and so scared to drive in Manhattan!!! AAHHHH!!! I did get honked at a couple of times, but I made it, whew.
As soon as we got to the hotel we dropped our stuff and went out to explore! First stop was to the 9/11 Memorial, it was beautiful as always, and incredible to see.
Since we were in my neck of the woods, I told the girls they HAD to eat at Shake Shack, not because I wouldn't eat anywhere else...which is true, but because it's the best!!! Here we are in front of our old Shake Shack!!! It was yummy, but they changed the fries to straight ones, not cool. Those were okay.
Since then though I've heard they changed the fries back to the crinkly fries. Now I need to go back to have those!
After eating we rushed back to around Times Square and got see Wicked!!!!! It was the first time I had ever seen it and it was incredible!!! I loved it.
After that we were so tired, it was 11pm, and we had left home at 8am that morning, that we went back to the hotel and straight to sleep.
