Traveling to New York City

I flew on a separate flight from the rest of the group. We were supposed to hit Laguardia at the same time, but my flight was early and theirs was late.

After a WILD shuttle van ride to the Hotel (Marriott Marquis on Times Square) we dumped our bags and walked around a bit.

Our hotel is RIGHT on Times Square. I can't believe we're staying here, it's way too nice. I LOVE it.

Just by wandering aimlessly last night, we managed to see where Good Morning America is broadcast, Rockafeller Center, and Radio City. I saw a bunch of Production trailers set up outside of a place, that turned out to be a Will Ferrel HBO special. That was cool. We also walked around the SNL studios (it was a Saturday Night, we HAD to).

Times Square was LEGIT. LEGIT. It was a shoulder-to-shoulder swarm of humanity, and this was 11:45pm. I was cringing at how crazy it must be in the mornings, with everybody trying to actually GET places!

I got back in the room after midnight, and after unpacking and preparing for the conference, I didn't get in bed until 2:30am NYC time.
