Be prepared for Jet Lag!

Apple_core_hotels_clock Remember that when you come to New York, some of you may suffer from a jet lag! To enjoy New York without being tired, be prepared. For instance, when you come from Paris to NY, you win 6 hours and it is better for you not to sleep in the plane (with a 6-hour flight, you arrive at the same time that the time you left in Paris). If you sleep in the plane, you won’t be able to sleep at night! To know everything about the difference of time between your city and New York, click on this link!

Black Friday!!!!!!

Apple_core_hotels_sales Black Friday is upon us. It is important that you mark your calendars, set up your reminders...it is November 28, the day after Thanksgiving. Do you want to save some money? Make an early list for those Christmas gifts and save lots of money. Black Friday is frequently referred as the busiest shopping day of the year. Let me rephrase it: Busiest Savings Day. Many retailers open early typically 5 A.M. and offer door buster deals and hefty discounts. Shoppers line up hours before stores with big sales open. Few items are sharply discounted. Be ready to experience shoulder to shoulder crowds. Get ready for the excitement. Oh yes, do not forget to empty out your car trunks....you will have to need them!! Enjoy your savings.
