Off to Yonkers. We decided to go to Untermyer Park and Garden and ignore rain threats. It paid off. We had a delightful sun filled stroll around the forty plus acres. To the west is the Hudson and the Palisades. The fragrant gardens are being restored. We visited the mysteriously named Persian Garden which is filled with copies of Greek statues and columns. Around us, restoration work was being done on the 1899 structure. So quiet, so green: a perfect antidote for the NYC bustle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I confess. I saw Always at the Carlyle<\/em>. I can claim I\u2019m a native New Yorker and the Carlyle is part of my DNA. The real reason I went to the restored Quad was to see all the celebrities in the documentary who can afford $10,000- $20,000 a night.<\/p>\n

Studio 5 Celebrating Bernstein and Robbins<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Boo-hoo. We attended our final Studio 5 presentation. It was dedicated to Leonard Bernstein. Bernstein, as everyone knows, would have been one hundred this year. We were treated to music and dance created by Bernstein and Jerome Robbins.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A friend and I planned our visit to the Cloisters\u2019 Heavenly Bodies so that we\u2019d arrive early and escape before the crowds arrived. After going through several cloisters, halls, and rooms to look at and drool over the fabulous and enormous exhibit which is part of the Fashion and the Catholic Imagination at the Metropolitan and the Cloisters, we felt peckish and went to New Leaf, a charming restaurant in the park.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been a week filled with gardens and views of the Hudson. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
