When our bathroom proved to have a water leakage issue causing squishy carpeting in our room, the Holiday Inn staff graciously moved us to another room. Who knew such fun could be had with a luggage trolley! Please, no smartass remarks about the old bag seated on the trolley.
Just down the street from our hotel was Country Club Plaza. Loads of shopping and eating opportunities. Solidifying Kansas City as a city of fountains, here we see the J.C. Nichols Memorial Fountain anchoring the northwest corner of CCP.
What a fun part of town for a walking tour! Kansas City is a treasure trove of art deco architecture mixed with modern glass towers. We enjoyed a lovely meal at Brio Tuscan Grille where Spencer took excellent care of three hungry and thirsty ladies. Upstairs at Brio's happy hour, we were introduced to the Mojito. I became enamored of the mango version. Seriously enamored. Dangerously close to crossing the line into mojithoe territory!
Kansas City's six year old downtown revitalization project, the Power & Light District, contains every opportunity for night life imaginable. We found excellent food and more Mojitos! I recommend the berry variety at Bar Louie.
Do keep your wits about you in any urban setting! At the same time we felt very comfortable and safe in this friendly environment.
We are amazed and awed by all the pretty lights. Is this when the Mothership landed?
My pretty sisters! An excellent evening was had by all.
Nobody never lets me have no fun dagnabbit!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, it looks like you and your sisters had a blast!
We have to pack a lot of fun into a few short days! We try to get together at least once a year. My sisses are two of my favorite people in the whole world!You must have fun, J, fun is good!
ReplyDeleteInstead of requesting more mojito's please could one just say mojitmo?
