More the merrier!

Great news. Debby and Andrea Massey will be joining us in NYC. They are very good friends of ours that also live in Florida (Coral Springs). I sent them the itenary for Karen, Sue and gang as they will also travel Friday evening into NYC and out again Sunday evening. We will now have three rooms which will give us all much more room. Sue, if you could please add them to the blog - Andrea's email is dre474@aol.com and Debby is Deborah.Alexopoulos@lfg.com
Andrea was in NYC a while ago with friends so I know she has lots of suggestions on bars/clubs for the girls to go to. They are both very excited about the Sex and the City tour and seeing Legally Blonde. Thanks, Patti

Brunch????

I think Samantha mentioned another restaurant on the water in Central Park. Should we do Tavern on the Green or the Boat House for brunch :)

pizzzzza.

i have a friend that went to NYC last weekend. she said Pinkberry was amazing! so we def need to do that. andddd she went to Lombardi's Pizza which is the VERY first pizza place, she said we HAVE to do that. its in little italy. & she saw Legally Blonde and said it was SOOOO much fun!
alsoooo. Im sure we've all seen the movie 27 Dresses, remember the part where the sister wants to get married at the "boathouse". well its actually a restaurant right on the water in central park. they have brunch, lunch and dinner. She went for lunch but said that a lot of people told her Brunch was really good there. so that could be an option! look it up and post what you think! cant wait guys!

I just realized there was information at the bottom that I hadn't seen! OMG we HAVE to do the Sex and the City Tour, and Mangia E Bevi sounds great - check out the websites. I think we need a tour coordinator to map out our days! We definitely need a plan!

shopping

this is some of the stores/shopping i would like to make it too....
h & m http://www.hm.com/
century 21 i can't find the website, but i went there last trip and it was all discount designer stuff.
then of coarse
china town
and 5th ave

I vote for...

Serendipity - but we should make a reservation cause there's usually a very long wait.
Stardust Diner is fun with the singing waiters and waitresses.
Legally Blonde, Mama Mia (or have some of you seen it?), or Kyle recommends Spring Awakening.
And OMG - we have to go to Chinatown to search for Louies!! in back alleys, store rooms, behind the stores - who knows where we will go for a good bargain!
What about Sex & the City tour? or Greenwich Village tour? Sunday brunch at Tavern on the Green? ...so much to do!

Jill & Sam here.....

heyyy girls!
So Jill & I are on the phone together and decided we'd post a blog about some stuff we found! so we both decided that the first night we get there should be the big birthday extavaganza. ha. and we really want the night to start off with something GREAT! so we searched on google for girls weekend ideas & on about four different sites we found an idea we both loved. Champagne at THE PLAZA before dinner in our birthday dresses!!! it sounds like the perfect start to our vacation! we also found a restaurant that looks like fun. reviews say its great food and really cool atmosphere. heres the website.

alright let us know what you think of everything!

very excited!

hi ladies!
Samantha finally showed me how to work this thing! I cant wait for the trip. I have a friend checking on the Hilton Towers hotel for us. It is across from Rockafella center & radio city music hall. We have stayed here before and it was really nice! I should know by the middle of next week some prices. serendipity is great! very small but really cute inside & the sundaes are too die for. The sex and the city tour sounds like so much fun. looking forward to the cosmos! we need to decide on what musical we want to see! i know the girls have been talking about Legally Blonde which sounds like a fun one to me. cant wait ladies!
Wow! I finally made it on this thing. Now if only my mom could join. We could be waiting awhile...but I have to say that I'm SOOOO excited to be going to NYC for Jill's 21st! We are going to have SOOO much fun!

I can't wait.....

Let's not forget Chinatown.....:)
