When I had heard that there were plans to open a new hotel in the shadows of Ground Zero I was intrigued. I mean it has been nearly nine years since the tragic events of 9/11 and barely anything has been built where the World Trade Center once stood. I was given a complimentary stay [...]
I am back with another Travel Blog Rewind, which cuts through the clutter that can sometimes be the blogosphere. Below are a few travel blog posts that caught my eye recently.

This past weekend I was invited aboard the Norwegian Epic, which is by far the company’s largest and most innovative ship to date.

With locations throughout New York City, Chicago and Washington DC, this collection of boutique [...]
