I was a little uneasy so I asked to see a room. I noticed a line of men outside one door which was strange. Then I saw the room with the mirrors on the ceiling and I know what the line was for! I thanked the man and moved on. New York City is so fun. It was awesome to stand on Ellis Island and ponder which of your ancestors may have been processed through there. It was thrilling to see the "Lady" that represents our freedom. NYC has an energy all its own. The falls that forms after the glaciers melt recede and newly formed lake water I visited the falls with my brother's family and his six month old boy. That was the first visit we went in America after my brother's wife delivered the baby. An unforgettable visit which filled everyone one's heart with fear looking from at a falls flowing from such great heights but amazingly beautiful and chill breeze with the droplets of spraying water was mind blowing experience. The Niagara Falls is known for beauty and its powerful source of hydroelectricity. Niagara Falls attracts many visitors by its beauty and its amazing height it flows from. An exemplary testimonial to God miraculous creations on earth which makes human astonish believes yes there is a supreme power above us. The hotel is situated directly across from the World Trade Center's remains. While some people might find this a somber setting for a vacation, I did not. I marveled in the grand stature of the hotel, juxtaposed to the sadness of the soon-to-be memorial WTC location. A good friend of mine met me outside of the hotel later that evening. We had a fantastic dinner at a Chinese restaurant located in the famed Chinatown district of New York. After dinner we did some sightseeing, shopping, and grabbed a cup of coffee to take with us on our stroll home. The next morning I awoke to a wonderful pot of fresh coffee that I had requested from room service the evening before. Then it was on to some shopping in the heart of New York City. I spent the day strolling the ritzy high-priced boutiques such as Gucci and Chanel, then made a few small purchases at one of my favorite New York City stores, Henri Bendel. Henri Bendel carries an outstanding line of candles and personal fragrances that I love to bring home to Denver. I met up with a girlfriend and took the subway to her home in Brooklyn for dinner. Later that evening I arrived back at the Millennium Hilton for one last stay in the fabulous hotel. I awoke to the same fresh coffee. I had again ordered the previous evening and took a taxi back to La Guardia to catch my return flight home to Denver. I love New York City and can't wait to go back! And of course, we had to get some New York pretzels along the way to the subway. We had an awesome time! My only regret was that I didn't wear really comfortable shoes, so when we got back to the hotel, my feet were killing me. Since it was June, the weather was beautiful. We even ventured out to South Street Seaport and went to the museum and some shops there. Yeah it was crowded, as New York always is, but as the saying goes, "I Love NY." I can't wait to go back.
