This weekend someone asked if I had been to Bedford Springs Resort. (been there, got the t-shirt, wore the t-shirt.... that's why they asked.) We talked briefly about that wonderful place of rest and relaxation. After that conversation and with my 40-something birthday coming soon I've been thinking back and remembering fondly the wonderful time of celebration I enjoyed with friends and thought I would share a few of those memories from birthday #40.
My husband did good on making this a big surprise for me. ( I will add that as a recovering type-A, surprises make me nervous, but I did survive.) He secretly invited 4 of my friends to meet us at Bedford Springs Resort in Pennsylvania. Upon first sight, the resort is breath-taking. If you haven't seen or been, it's like a cruise ship on dry land - unbelievably beautiful grandeur.
This picture shows the expanse of the resort but doesn't do it's beauty justice. |
My friends were waiting to greet me in the lobby.
Let the party begin!! |
We enjoyed fabulous food and decadent desserts. |
The spa was beautiful and luxurious.
One of my favorite treats was the citrus-infused cucumber water.
We went back for many refills.
After a fun night of playing games and laughing until we were asked to stop laughing......we slept.
On Saturday, we took a cooking class with Chef Konrad.
He truly welcomed us into his kitchen.
We chopped and stirred and tasted. What fun!!!
On the way home, we stopped for a bit at some store for football fans.
Not sure what that's all about. ; )
