I want to wake up in a city, that never sleeps.
December, 2008
Once upon a time in a fascinating city full of history, where the 1984 Winter Olympic Games took place, three girls
became very good friends. In the early '90s they moved to two different countries and three different cities. The first girl moved to the city where the Queen lives in Buckingham Palace. The second girl moved to the city where the lovable bear "Winnie The Pooh" was born. The third girl moved to the city that is the home of the world's tallest free standing structure - the CN Tower and the world's longest street - Yonge Street (ca. 1,896 km long). They weren't sure they'd ever see each other again.... Then 17 years later they met again in the Big Apple. New York Adventure started here at Holiday INN Hotel - Manhattan

Rockette-tinis - Cheers!
The souvenir must have of the night was a Rockette-tini that came in a plastic martini glass with Rockette legs AND a blue, light-up stir stick - Totally Cool! - it made the whole adventure worth it. 
The Radio City Music Hall is a gorgeous theater and it just adds that extra special magical touch to the Christmas feeling.
"Christmas Spectacular"
The show was "Spectacular" as the name suggests and, as always, the falling soldiers was the favorite part of the show. My friends and I want to be Rockettes!!!
