The City That Never Sleeps

My first trip to New York City was quite an experience. I attended the 52nd Annual Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Meeting and gave a presentation about some of the research which I did for my Master's Thesis at U of L. In between sessions I played tourist for a while and did some sightseeing. Our hotel was basically right in the middle of Times Square so there was always alot of craziness going on around there. I also got to see the Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, the Dave Letterman Show studio, Grand Central Station, Radio City Music Hall, Rockerfeller Center, Central Park, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Another highlight was getting to see the famous Broadway musical "Phantom of the Opera". The real highlight of the trip was having my flight cancelled and getting to spend the night in Jersey!! (can you sense the sarcasm). All in all, it was an awesome trip and I cannot wait to go back.
