Laowai

Finally getting around to posting the photos from the other part of our Spring Break. On Thursday Claire and I flew from Munich to New York to meet Jennifer and Jenna. 

We spent the next day zipping around Manhattan – seeing museums and a show and doing lots of shopping.

The Little Island was windy!

A quick photo at the Friends apartment.

Time to see a show – Jennifer got tickest to The Great Gatsby. We all enjoyed the show and then after Jennifer and Jenna and Claire went to the stage door to see the performers. I was too sleepy (jet lag) so I went back to our hotel and I could see the stage door from our window.

Thanks to Jenna – Claire got the full Broadway experience. Lots of fun!

Jennifer found out that there was an exhibit about Beatrix Potter at the Morgan Library and Museum. It was the perfect thing for Easter weekend. It's a beautiful museum – I love seeing old and new architecture married together.

There are some of Beatrix Potters early drawings and and her Jemima Puddleduck below.

A quick stop at Grand Central Station.

Next we visited the Moma. 

We were getting tired at this point – vacation is exhausting!

There are the girls keeping an eye on the stage door below our hotel window.

On our last morning before flying home we had time for one more bagel breakfast and a walk in springy Central Park.

The dog park and its characters were the highlight of our morning.

Ah what a fun trip! Everything was perfect!
