TRAVEL STUFF

Since I couldn't make a good, informed decision based on the reviews on TripAdvisor and the pictures on each hotel's website, I asked the fine folks in the NYC forum on TripAdvisor for their feedback. One community member pointed me to a site Oyster.com that I don't think I'll ever again travel without booking. It's the real deal when it comes to giving you real life information on where you want to go.  This changes everything. I'm so excited by this discovery that I have to share it with everyone (well, everyone who reads this blog). I'm actually considering different hotels now.
