Rangers and Summit One
Late January M got some Ranger's tickets.. we really look forward to these and hadn't been back since Covid so were super excited. The game starts at 8pm so we decided to head into the city a little earlier and make a day out of it.
WARNING OLD PERSON RANT COMING - I love my phone but the need to take pictures of everything for social media has ruined the experience of just enjoying the stunning view. Their was a multitude of girls dressed to the nines who where blocking huge chunks of space to do their outfit pics.. they had additional lighting and gear and what not to get the perfect shot. They probably didn't even see the view. What's the point!? RANT OVER.
Summit One has created various interactive rooms and experiences while enjoying the stunning views. There was a mirror room and balloon room (most fun).. I was skeptical at first, but after being there I highly recommend going.. especially around sunset.
There was an additional fee to take a glass elevator up to the top which we did not do. We had a Ranger game to get to.
We got to New York around four so our first stop was Grand Central Station. We needed to get some coffee.. does anyone else experience a sourness in coffee? M and I have experienced it multiple times where the coffee has a sour taste and we can't tell if it's us. Anyway.. we drank our sour coffee and wandered around, sad to see so many shops closed. But really enjoyed their market.
Next we had gotten tickets for Summit One at Vanderbilt. Our tickets were for just after dusk and it was the most perfect breathtaking experience. Pictures do not do justice. Speaking of pictures..

A room of clouds where they super imposed our faces in the clouds.

We got there a couple of minutes late and The Coyotes had already scored two goals!! But we crushed them in the end 4-7 and that's what really matters :) Even made it on the jambotron which never happens.

I agree with you about young people who go overboard taking photos of themselves!
