Vacation Help
I'm looking for something to do in March, local-ish to NY... for a day or 1-2 nights max that would feel like a vacation without the cost. Even like a restaurant with a gorgeous waterview or just something special. Anything that would make me feel special or like a tourist for the day without having to spend an arm and a leg or do much packing/traveling. Any ideas?!?

I did that last winter with Mystic CT. The hotel rates were inexpensive and there were a lot of cute, local restaurants, things to see, etc. Taking the ferry over from Orient made it feel like a vacation. And if you feel like it at night, Mohegan Sun/concert arena are only about 20 minutes away for nightlife.

How much is the ferry if you bring your car?

Maybe do the highline or something like that.
Or go downtown to Tribeca- lots of nice options there
