Ever been on the Empire State Building? Of course you have. Everybody has. I must be the last person to go on that tower, even though it’s been under my nose (or up?) for the past 14 years. Maybe because I am afraid of heights? Or because I think it will be there next year, and the next year, and the next… But while I’m on a venture, visiting New York tourist attractions, I thought, now’s a better time than ever!
