Spring Break 2013 a.k.a. How to spend a week in New York City
16:38As spring break draws to a close, I find myself reliving the memories of this amazing trip. Although I didn't travel very far (however draining the hour long subway ride to school is) It was time to pack up my suitcase and spend some quality time with my amazing family and equally amazing friends.
Saturday: Because St. Patricks day fell on a Sunday this year, the cities annual St. Patricks day parade was celebrated on a Saturday (and what a celebration it was!) The endless amount of drunk, and drenched/freezing, people was almost overwhelming. My friends and I walked for what seemed like hours in the snow to find the parade and we even came across this bakery called Magnolia that had one of the best lemon bars I have ever had. Finally my mom, Veronika, and Molly arrived (yay!) and we went with my friends to a little diner on Lexington and after walked to Times Square.
Monday: After a bit of a struggle at finding out the Metropolitan Museum of Art is closed on Mondays we ended up down at The Museum of Modern Art and looked at some really interesting (and sometimes puzzling) modern pieces of art. After we tried to find a Kate Spade store and ended up at some random office spaces. But we were close enough to walk to the Flatiron Building and to Mario Batali's ginormous Italian food and wine marketplace near the flat iron building. After the tiresome day of adventure on Sunday, we decided to go back and rest for the night.
