This was a lazy day. I, of course, woke up early. After a cider doughnut breakfast, I settled in to read for awhile downstairs. Nick woke up eventually and joined the reading festivities. It was snowing and we had gone everywhere we wanted to go that week. Today was just going to be a chill day.
Around lunch time I called in an order to Bagels Plus (roast beef, american cheese and horseradish mayo on an asiago bagel for him, “the bomb” on a whole wheat bagel for me), and then cleaned the snow off the car and went to pick up lunch. I was back at the resort shortly after, and was able to get a parking spot outside our building.
Lunch was, no surprise, delicious. My sandwich, “the bomb” was essentially an Italian sandwich on a bagel.
We decided while eating that since I’d been able to score a parking space in front of our building, which would make loading the car easier in the morning, we would figure out a dinner option that did not require moving the car until we checked out the next morning.
As the snow died down, we walked over to the Met again for one more round of hot beverages. These were much needed, since what we didn’t realize, was when the snow died down, it started freezing raining. Needless to say it was a gross walk, but we certainly enjoyed our thin mint hot cocoa (me) and chai latte (him) when we got back to our room. We also got some “vacation juice” for later. By that I mean we got the closest thing we’ve found to POG juice in this region.
Nick began the search for dinner and found a place that was walking distance and taking reservations. He was able to get us a reservation for 5:00 at DeaconStreet, which we had never heard of, but that had an interesting looking menu, so we headed over there for 5.
DeaconStreet was a great find and should be much higher rated on TripAdvisor. Their menu had lots of interesting choices, for both food and beverage, the cocktails were perfectly proportioned, our food (fried chicken for me, a burger for him) was delicious, service was good, they were being very intentional in how they were seating/spacing groups, and...there was distanced live music!!! It really is amazing what music does. Needless to say, we would not hesitate to return to DeaconStreet.
After dinner we went back to the resort, did some serious packing since we had to be out by 10 the next morning, and we took our final extra long showers until, quite possibly, April vacation. Then we crashed for the final time on that not the world’s most comfortable bed.
