After the Rockettes, we made our way back to Columbus Circle to go to the Barbie exhibit at the Museum of Art and Design.
It was fantastic!!
They had a big collection of original Barbies and clothes from the 1950s…the same Barbie clothes that GJ had and that Samantha now has! It was fun to see all of the clothes that GJ dressed her Barbies up in!
They also had the original Barbie Dream House that GJ also had and I used to play with at Susu’s house when I was little. We don’t have that anymore so it sure was fun to see!
They even had a life size version!
They had all sorts of Barbies from each decade and it was so fun to see how the dolls and clothes evolved.
Of course the best part was the Barbie corvette!! Love it!
Samantha looks like a real Barbie!
Just call me Midge…
Aren’t we cute?!
I’m so glad we went! We then shopped a little in Columbus Circle and then walked down Central Park South to have dinner at Sarahbeth’s. On the way we ran into my old colleague…NYC is such a small place after all!
We had a fantastic dinner….
and then we made not our wisest decision to walk down to Rockefeller Center to see the tree before heading back to the hotel. The tree was pretty but, man oh man, the crowds were overwhelming!
That night we headed back to the theater to see & Juliet! It was really entertaining and Charli D’Amelio, a Tik Tok star, was in the show which Samantha thought was cool!
Such a fun, full day! The next morning we headed to the airport two hours late and missed our flight. Yep, never in my life have I missed a flight but I got the time wrong and we departed for LGA at 8:00am when our flight actually left at 8:47am. Thankfully Delta got us on a 10:00am through Atlanta and we got back to Birmingham just a few hours later than we were supposed to.
It was a whirlwind of a weekend but totally worth it! We love NYC!
