Creator's Key Takeaways
We're going to go to New York for New Year's Eve. So, we're spending four nights there and then we're going on an eastbound transatlantic crossing on Queenry 2 back home.
The firework display was absolutely spectacular. Seeing the Statue of Liberty and the city skyline all lit up at night was also a really nice touch.
It was amazing. Having crossed the bridge, we now headed towards the financial district as we wanted to see the charge and bow.
We had a great time. Happy new year the new
