Quick Weekend Trip to New York City from Connecticut

Quick NYC Getaway

This past weekend my husband and I took a quick weekend trip to NYC to see a concert at City Winery in Chelsea and get in a little R&R. We took the train in right from Milford and walked from Grand Central Station to the Chelsea Marriott on 30th between 6th and 7th. We relaxed with a late, light lunch sharing a salad and sandwich with some cocktails at the hotel restaurant/bar before walking down to the venue via the Highline Trail. This was our first time on the trail and it was every bit as cool as I’ve heard it was. It was like a little oasis hovering above the city with views of amazing architecture, gardens, sculpture and on some days food venders and entertainment.

We decided City Winery was one of the best venues to see a show! We had an excellent view from our 2nd floor, bar-top seating where we were so close we could see the performer wink at her friends in the box just to the left of us! The waiter brought us food and drinks throughout the show and we had comfortable seating too! This might mean I’m officially old but I’m ok with it!
