A Day at the Ritz

Happy 11/11,

I wished for.....

Well, never mind that!

I dedicate this photo in honor of Veteran's Day

Today is Veteran's Day, so in honor of the men and women who served our country, I had another day off from school! Second week in a row. And next week I have an all day field trip on Monday, and I might be taking off Friday due to HARRY POTTER AT MID-NIGHT! Anyways, since I had the day off, I decided to edit the stacks of photos. I'm going to do a scheduled post later in the week of attempts at my 365 project. I'm totally lost with the number day I'm on, so I'll just post the photographs that I have. I've also been editing photos for my club since I'm the photographer.

Anyways, this is just a quick photo post about my grandma's birthday which we celebrated on the 42nd floor of the Ritz-Carlton. I'm not posting the photos of my grandparents (or any people) to respect their privacy--so none of the portraits I took.

The view! It was crazy. I was going crazy wishing for a telephoto lens!

Am I the only one disgusted by the prospect of Lobster Macaroni and Cheese? I've never eaten Lobster before, is that a good combo? Feedback haha?

My cousin had this bug bracelet, with an actual dead bug in it. Yeachhh. Let's put that in the Lobster Mac and Cheese!

The sunset at the end of the day was AMAZING.

My thoughts on the Ritz? Since my family follows the restrictions of Kashrut, I wasn't able to eat the food there, instead my Aunt ordered in dinners from Super Sauls, so I can't judge the food. The actual hotel was amazing. We had a room rented in the 42 Diner, which is a restaurant on the 42nd floor!! All around were windows, so we had a full view of White Planes, it was mind blowing (although I was so scared the building would crumble...42 stories is pretty tall! If you have a chance to attend an even there, go! Nice lighting, atmosphere, the food smelled good, and the waiter wear red Converse high tops!

I'm planning to post some 365-esque inspired photos from my latest 'haul' at some point later in the week, stay tuned!
