NEW YORK CITY SHOPOVER

PRICE PER PERSON $2,500.00
This is a quickie to NYC during a perfect time of year. We will stay at The Belvedere Hotel, in mid-town Manhattan, where we can shop, museum hop, and take in a show on Broadway. Were you aware that the Metropolitan Museum of Art is one of the top three museums in the world? It is huge, amazing and can be overwhelming; however, being a member of the Met for many years taught me how to divide and conquer this fantastic collection. No matter what your interest, from Greek and Roman sculpture to 20th century European paintings, from a silver teapot poured by Paul Revere to the Egyptian Temple of Dendur to a Stradivarius violin, the Metropolitan Museum of Art is a National Treasure to be sure. After wandering the collections, a glass of champagne on the museum’s mezzanine to live chamber music is one of my very favorite NYC things to do, so we’ll do that too. I love shopping in SoHo and we will share delicious meals at my favorite restaurants and dives, and altogether slip into “That New York State of Mind”. The Statue of Liberty, Grand Central Station, Time Square, Central Park and more. For me this is a wonderfully fun shopover as I will be on my way to gorgeous Paris, why don’t you come with me?
