NEW YORK CITY

Hello New York City. I have just visited this vibrant city for the first time over Thanksgiving 2022. This location is so full of activity, people and things to do. We stayed in the Upper West Side (so we could catch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade as well, but we visited several other areas of the city while we were there. Of course, it was certainly more challenging than a normal travel trip for me as I have a broken foot. So I was viewing a lot of New York City from a wheelchair so that my family didn’t have to move as slow as I could walk in my walking cast.

BAHA MAR

I had the pleasure of visiting Baha Mar in Nassau, Bahamas this past week. I stayed at the Grand Hyatt Baha Mar, but there are several properties connected all together. There is the Rosewood Baha Mar and SLS (which are both Virtuoso properties). During the covid period, they also spent over 200 million building a very large water park.
