Parent's Visit

My parents made it to New York for Mother's Day. We spent the weekend doing some fun touristy things. Friday night, we went to Birdland, a jazz dinner club. We had some drinks and appetizers while listening to the club's happy hour Big Band. After that, we had dinner with Erik at one of our favorite restaurants in Chelsea, Rocking Horse. Saturday we walked around Central Park, which was much nicer than our brief walk in the Park the last time my parents were here in August when it was 95 degrees and humid. Saturday night we saw Curtains, a musical starring David Hyde Pierce, of Frasier fame. Sunday we met my parents up at Rockefeller Center after they went to mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral. We had a stroll down Fifth Ave and saw the Empire State Building and relaxed for a bit in Madison Sq Park by the Flatiron Building. We headed back to Williamsburg, had some drinks at Spike Hill Irish Bar and then took a stroll along the W'burg shore.
