NEW YORK — There’s something about an observatory.
Sure, they’re half a tourist trap, but there is also something therapeutic about relaxing and enjoying the view.
Worries wash away with each passing floor. The world below looks so small and simple.
It puts the world in perspective.
So, in honor of getting high, enjoy the view from a recent visit to One World Observatory in New York.

Global hotel rates rose 2 percent in 2010, and despite the increase year-over-year, travel deals and value can still be found in America’s most popular cities as well as the new global up-and-coming destinations, according to the hotels.com Hotel Price Index.
Some people go to New Zealand for the wine. Maybe a hike to take in the views. The food? Sure! Some might even go for the heritage. Me? I’m here for the trains! Here, a class DSG locomotives passes the historic Dunedin railway station in the heart of this heritage city.
There is something inherently hopeful about the largest city on New Zealand’s South Island. The city today is a vibrant community, full of interesting attractions.
