Okay.....so we changed into our night time wear and before you knew it, it was time to hop around the block to our dinner at Bellini's. I started with baked asparagus encrusted with parmesan cheese.. Oh...........my............word...........I could have eaten this all weekend. For dinner, it was Gamberoni Bellini -- Jumbo shrimp sauteeed with white wine, tomato, and melting mozzarella. Again, very good. I had some kind of hazelnut gelato covered in chocolate to look like 1/2 of a porcini mushroom for dessert.

I then called John's cousin to let him know that we were coming over to his club a little before opening (we got there at 9:45pm)

The place is called Vue. We were escorted up to the VIP level and sat down to a round of complimentary drinks. Then we find out that we will be hanging out with a "private party" and open bar for us until midnight. Hot damn!! We were so excited as they were playing 80's music, but as the night got later, it turned into techno and wasn't as fun dancing, LOL. I left with a girlfriend around 12:30, as we were beat, but the other 4 girls stayed for another hour. Once 12:30 came, they let "the public" up as the party was over, and that's when it got really crowded and a fight broke out, and the other girls came back to the hotel as well.

Next morning, my friend and I attended mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral. What a beautiful experience!! We spent the rest of the morning walking around Rockerfeller Center, grabbing lunch at Oscar's and heading home, and back to reality.

I have to say, my friend's husband ROCKS and it will be something that none of us will ever forget.
