  3. 1) Marriott Eastside in Manhattan. When we arrived our requested room wasn’t ready. We waited for an hour in the concierge lounge and when it still wasn’t ready they upgraded us to the top floor corner mini suite with a full view of the top of the Chrysler Tower.
    2) First Class non stop Newark / San Diego.
    3) The view from the top of the Rockefeller Center.
    4) San Diego to Palm Springs February 2017 to see Dr Spo. We had a much wetter than normal winter and the mountains between here and the desert looked like a drive through Ireland.
    5) King of Prussia PA. Not only was that mall the most incredible I’ve ever experienced but the friendship of The Warrior Queen and The Mistress taking me to dinner divine!
