CITY TRAVEL HIGHLIGHT: MIAMI

Well, let me start with—how about those O’s!!!! I just got back from South Beach, MIAMI where HIP HOP Festival was in full bloom as well as Miami HEAT and DETROIT PISTON NBA Basketball playoffs. I had a luxurious salon visit @ LACE in MIAMI, phenomenal taste bud sensations @ NOBU MIAMI, a boat ride around Adventura and many walks on South Beach’s Collins and LINCOLN ROADS. CITYPEEK.com is soon to be open in Miami Beach so, of course, research had to be done! But, how about those ORIOLES and DC Nationals! O’s ROCK Camden Yards and Baltimore is proud! Before an ORIOLES game, where to eat, ESPN ZONE has a great idea?



CITYPEEK HOTEL HIGHLIGHT:

THE ROOSEVELT HOTEL New York CITY. Thank you goes to Judy Wilbur @ Radisson Cross Keys for connecting CITYPEEK and adpatti to a great New York City hotel, The ROOSEVELT Hotel. Fantastic location @ Madison @ 45th Street, just across from Grand Central Station. Enjoyed breakfast buffet daily in the hotel, wonderful bar selection and easy walk to Broadway or mid town shopping or subway. Kevin Croke and his team do a wonderful job.
