The New York Times Travel Show



Last month, I got the chance to attend the New York Times Travel Show at the Jacob Javits Center in New York City. When I arrived at the travel show, I saw all different kinds of stands and groups from places all around the world.

It was a great experience! I saw live animals like penguins at the SeaWorld display, and owls and possums at the Busch Gardens display. There were also fun activities to participate in, such as making a video in which you dance with penguins, or a video where you jump into arctic water or walk through a blizzard.

There were other activities also. There was a giant rock climbing wall and a trampoline that you could do flips on, due to being held in by two ropes. If you turned around at the top of the rock climbing wall, you could see the entire convention. It was great!

I had only been to the Javits Center once before, and that was for NYCC last year. And even though the travel show did not take up the whole convention center, I was still amazed at how much they had to offer.

All in all, I thought that the New York Times Travel Show was a blast this year. It is definitely something I will be checking out next year, hopefully along with NYCC 13. The travel show was a great experience and definitely an eye opener about cultures around the world!

Here is a short video I made about the New York Times Travel Show, featuring "Ho Hey" by The Lumineers
