My husband frequents the New York City area for business, and from time to time I like to fly up on points to join him for an extended weekend. Previously on these trips, we’ve had a lot of fun in New York City itself, and we’ve even broadened our horizons to Rhode Island, Hartford and […]
New York City is a cosmopolitan buzzing city with a panoply of entertainment options including varied Broadway shows, musicals, bars and cafes, museums, shopping venues and so much more. One could visit NYC regularly and never get bored. There are also countless restaurants catering to all tastes and budgets. In Manhattan, modern glass towers soar […]
We were recently in New Jersey for a scuba diving conference and decided to visit the Thomas Edison National Historic Park. Maintained by the National Parks, the Laboratory Complex opened in October of 2009. The brick buildings in West Orange, NJ, are just remarkable.

Well with so many New Yorkers in our Miami building we were chalk full of tips and suggestions for restaurants and food places around Manhattan. We were staying near Times Squares and sometimes avoiding tourist traps can be difficult especially when staying in a touristic area.
We just got back from a short trip to New York City. Having unused upgrades that we didn’t want to lose was a good incentive, so we looked around for a good travel deal. The New York Times Travel Show was coming up and that was an excellent excuse to return to the “Big Apple” […]
We are just back from The New York Times Travel Show! This is one of the biggest travel shows and attracts over 30,000 visitors every year. While we wish it were held a few months later with warmer weather, we were happy to get to New York for an extended weekend.
We will be attending the New York Times Travel Show for the first time and we are really looking forward to it. There will be many travel related seminars and we will be busy exploring 16 pavilions with 500 + exhibitors representing 150 countries! Attending travel seminars and meeting the experts is going to be great for […]
