New York Photojournal

As you know I went to New York at Christmas and it has taken me ages to get my photos sorted. I know a few people are going over to New York soon so I thought I’d finally share some of my snaps.

We took hundreds of photos each so these are just a few brief glimpses.

There will be a hints & tips post tomorrow too!

Sunday Brunch, The View, Marquis Hotel, New York

Sunday Brunch, The View, Marquis Hotel, New York

Hello Lovelies, 

Bit of a different one today as it is more of a preview than a review!

As we go to New York in a mere few hours, we have booked ourselves a fancy pants Sunday Mimosa Brunch ($59 pp) at The View restaurant.

Sitting at the top of the Marquis Hotel, The View is a 360 degree rotating restaurant offering breathtaking views of the city from 48 floors up. The only in the city!


It is noted to have the best dining views in the city….

As the restaurant takes 1 hour to rotate, they provide handy maps on the napkins so you always know what you are looking at. How cool is that?
