Now I've been to New York before many years ago, but it wasn't a happy trip. This time I had a fabulous time with good friends and loved ones. Honestly I've been waiting for this trip for a few months now and I couldn't believe that it came and gone so fast. Leaving Salt Lake wasn't as fast as i wanted it but we finally made it to New York. Okay, so the weather report said it will be nice and warm, sunny and it will be spring in the air. Uh wrong!!  We arrived there and it was COLD!! It did not felt like spring it felt like we came at the dead of winter!! Boy we were surprised about that. But that didn't kill for us, we managed and had a great time. We did so much walking around that I felt like my feet was going to fall off. Of course we went site seeing and it was fun. So much historical and iconic places that we enjoyed going to. I would have to say that the whole hustle and bustle isn't a joke in New York. Everyone is in a hurry. Traffic jams, honking, screaming people, crowded subways, people rushing to eat, walk, what have you. It was crazy. What you see in the movies is not how you would picture it. Nope, it's way more crazier and stinkier. But any who, I'm glad that I've gotten to enjoy New York the way you should. The shows were amazing, the food was spot on, visiting old and new areas of NYC and the lights! What more can I say about the New York lights at night. So gorgeous and stunning. We were lucky to have hotel rooms at the Marriott Hotel in Time Square. We were up in the sky, that's how I felt like. The sunsets was beautiful and the evening time was my favorite. Staying at that hotel made me feel like I was rich or something important. Kind of bougie. lol Anyways, one of my most memorable trips and I hope to travel back there soon.

It's always great to have my Dad visit us from Hawaii nei. He's a traveler and wants to explore whatever is out there. Nature and site seeing is his cup of tea. Well he loves to cook and take photos, so I would say that he's an all type of adventure type of guy. Not to mention he really loves GUNS!! Yup with his military background anything to do with weapons, he's hands on deck!! No joking around, he will shot you and you don't even know you've been shot, well until you start bleeding to death. lol Anyways, my dad is in town for 2 weeks and I'm going to enjoy every moment with him. From our walks around town, taking pictures of things he wants to photograph, to making all sort of meals, hiking, driving to Scheels, Cabela's and every type of camping, hiking outdoors place.There is never a dull moment with my dear old Dad. I love to talk stories with him about anything and everything. We even like to plan future adventures around the globe. So I'm hoping and praying that it will come to pass. I would love to travel more and out of country. It's a blessing to have Dad around and I know I'm going to cry like a baby when he leave. I'm grateful that he is finding other things to do to keep his mind busy so he won't think about Mom. Miss you mommy!! But other than that our adventure beings and I'm so excited that its with my family and my Dad!!

 Spending time with my siblings at the Black Bear Diner in South Jordan. Best place to get that home cooked meal with some country flare to it. I love this place. Hardy and delicious.
