I thought I would be overwhelmed by the city, but instead I embraced it. I felt welcome and warm. I met tons of great New Yorkers rather born and raised or transplanted.
We managed to check off just about every box on our list and we had wonderful weather for most of our trip (one half day of sprinkles and one full day of heavy rain).
Almost everything about our trip was perfect, from our flights into La Guardia, our hotel, all our excursions (that we pre-booked) and finding our way out of the city and back home (we managed to navigate the subway system like pros).
A big thank you to my aunt and super travel partner. She put up with my excessive planning and I think it really paid off big time. Not only did we have all our Broadway show tickets, museum and tours tickets well in advance, but we also paid for them months ahead of time so that our budget could accommodate $175 dinners for 2, $20 glasses of Chardonnay and $25 bright yellow New York Cab pajama bottoms.
Enjoy!
