Weekend in the City

I finally had a chance to work on pictures from my birthday celebration weekend in the city a couple of weeks ago.  My in-laws graciously agreed to take care of Mia and Alexa and give Victor and I a chance for some ‘us’ time so we decided to take advantage of our proximity to Manhattan and spend a night there.  We stayed downtown in Tribeca Grand and it was wonderful to spend time in the area we called home for almost 6 years.  We hit a few of our favorite spots to eat (Barbounia for lunch, Capsouto Freres for dinner and Kitchenette for breakfast), walked all over and even were able to buy last minute tickets (love TKTS )for ‘Lend me a Tenor‘ with Tony Chalhoub and Anthony LaPaglia.  We felt completely recharged by our 1.5 days in the city:)

Would you believe it if I told you that this parking lot is located right across Tribeca Grand – one of the most expensive zip codes in the US!

Here is our trusted mini-cooper that being a British import Victor and I affectionately called ‘Penny’ – as in ‘Penny Lane’:)

And here is me – Birthday Girl in all my 34 year old glory:
