During the Easter break I had the opportunity to travel to New York City and experience various fun activities there. This experience included the visit to the Metropolitan Opera House‚ which turned out to be more exciting than I expected. The facility and the neighborhood gave that extra little charm to the whole opera night. Every opera performance requires its spectators to dress up formal and basically give them an opportunity to show off their best attire‚ that included me as well.

By the time Europeans first saw the islands‚ the guano was more than 100 feet
