Day One NYC

What a wonderful day in NYC! I am already having such fun! I arrived around 1:00 NY time and headed to the Flatiron Hotel. A newly renovated property located in the heart of the Flatiron district. Such a beautiful hotel.

My room is dreamy. It is decorated in gorgeous tones of tangerine and gold with a touch of key lime. Dreamy!

There is a two story aquarium in the lobby and one little guy just wanted to talk...lol. He kept following me and stopping to chat :)

After I settled into the hotel, I ventured outside the hotel into the surrounding neighborhood.
