Christmas Shopping New York

November 29 – December 2, 2010

Join us when we travel to New York for a luxurious four days on November 29. We will stay at the beautiful Roosevelt Hotel central to everything that we could wish to experience on this glamorous Christmas shopping get-away.

On our first day in Manhattan we will enjoy lunch at the famous Train Bleu (additional cost) at Bloomingdale’s before doing some serious shopping at this 59th Street flagship store.

The opulent Frick Collection is our destination the next morning. Here we will view the priceless collection of Henry Clay Frick exhibited in a residential setting amid the furnishing of his beautiful mansion.

Evenings we will have the option of attending a Broadway show, jazz at a cabaret or supper club such as the Café Carlyle or a dance or musical evening. The choice is yours.

A walking tour of historic, charming Greenwich Village is planned for Wednesday morning with a local guide.

We have allotted plenty of time for you to visit your favourite places. Some research in the Sunday New York Times closer to our departure will provide other options.  Susy Gershman’s  Born to Shop New  York is an excellent guide for those of us who love to shop.
