NYC Pulse.... 20th Floor (top room floor), room 2003, Empire State Building View (you actually get a thin little balcony with this room type...and the room size is pretty good vs the majority of their rooms which are very small).

Enjoy NYC! Be sure to take a horse drawn carriage ride. Ask for Kramer and Rusty.

Ask for Kramer and Rusty.
Which one is the name of the horse and which is the name of the coachman? Just curious.

I love the balcony!!! We were on 12th floor and had the same window view -- but that balcony would be a nice feature! Enjoy NYC!

Best,

Greg

Greg, if you are that high up but have no balcony at all, can you open up the windows or not? This is what gives me the creeps at some high-rises when the windows are locked and cannot be opened up even a little bit for fresh air.

Rusty is the horse, but Kramer has a horse like face.

I don't think I could open the window, but don't exactly recall....sorry about that!

I always wondered what he did for work after the show ended ... "Nay, I say ... Nay".

Ride was cut short because Rusty got a little "windy". It was fun singing along with Kramer though....

I'm so keen-o
On Beef-A-Reeno
What a delicious cuisine-o
Fit for a king and queen-o

We did have a taste of some wonderful marble rye while we were in town.

Hope you didn't steal it from an old lady.

Just returned from three nights at Marriott's Grand Chateau in Las Vegas. While there is no balcony, there is a view, so here are three pictures - day, night, and sunrise - from room 2313.

Heritage Manor room 1512. Looking out on Blue Heron’s 1st green. Has been peaceful here at Manor Club. Great time just golfing at Ford’s Colony and walking in Freedom Park and Colonial area with perfect weather.

I really enjoyed meeting up and chatting with you on your recent flying visit into Phuket.
Have a great time on your return here in the New Year.

Me too, Barry and thanks again for showing me around. Can't wait to spend a full week at Phuket Beach Club next January!
