The Belvedere Mansion: The Good

Ahhh...the trip had many adventures in store for us ...staying here was incredible! The view of the Hudson valley greeted us for dinner on the veranda. Perfect, cool and not raining the second evening of our stay.!Inside the decor was very Bohemian. The Inn itself is of the Neo -Classical style.
Dinner was fabulous! ..The CIA is right down the road.(.That's Culinary Institute of America for all you non foodies..haha) so top class chefs in the area.

Spectacular surroundings..with vino, fine food, and .....
The sun sinking over the valley.
Entrance to the Inn.
Many long and winding roads on the journey. My niece and I were totally confounded by the lack of signs and the directions given us were b-a-d. ha. It rained like crazy which compounded the problem. The Omega Institute is in a remote part of the area. I am talking REMOTE! haha!
More about the seminar next post! .............

  5. Wow I thought you'd be back with many new enlightenments from the seminar but it sounds like it may have fallen a bit short. BUT the area does look so beautiful, the Inn looks fab and it was a brand new adventure to see and write about....so that's the good.
    I am anxious to hear more!!
    Miss and love ya,
    Lisa

  9. Beautiful photos Lalagirl. Did you know....the Hudson Valley is where I am originally from? Lovely there, in the spring and summer. Not so lovely in the winter. What adventures you are having. Maybe you should write a travel book! xoxoxoxo
