Please do not hesitate to book her. I feel like the knife in my heart was removed and I know for a FACT that my loved one is OK and we will be together again. I felt joy and love for the first time since our loss. This is confirmation that our loved ones are OK beyond a doubt and I needed it more than I even knew. Thank you Angelina.

Glow Hartford is definitely geared toward children (as is to be expected, but perhaps a tad more…read morethan expected), with lights, light swings, hoppity-hop areas, color-changing pads they can jump between, a small train, and some photo ops that kids will love. It's all indoors and warm, which is a plus for New England winters, but personally I'd rather find local outdoor light displays instead. For the lights themselves, the standout for most kids was probably the hanging "icicle" garden -- rows of lights you can walk through, which seemed to get the biggest reaction. Do it early enough next year, and you may even get a decent shot or two in time for your Shutterfly or equivalent Christmas card. The snack options were fine, and there's alcohol for adults, though some things are a bit on the expensive side. You'll probably also end up giving in to some of the add-ons -- glowing cups, light-up wands, or similar extras -- so your kid isn't the only one without one. (Maybe prepare yourself with a preemptive "OK, but just ONE.") The self-stamped passport activity was a nice touch, and the PEZ dispenser prize at the end was a cute detail. All in all, it's an OK experience and a nice family option if you take advantage of everything inside. I'd call it 3.5 stars -- fun to do once, but probably not something I'd make a yearly tradition.

"Morning glow, filled with light You can make the whole day…read morebright" (Michael Jackson) Glow is a family-friendly indoor winter festival of lights currently open in five Canadian cities, Eugene Oregon, and good old Hartford, CT. It was a beautiful display of color and design, highlighted by plenty of dazzling lights in the shape of iconic landmarks from around the world. If you ever hoped to see Christmas lights in the shape of the London Eye, Eiffel Tower, Asian temples, Taj Mahal, the Louvre, and London Bridge... well you'll be amazed at the images you see here. Complementing the visuals are bars, rides, food, photo ops with Santa and the Grinch, live music, and a vendor trade show. Plenty of kiddie activities too - a bounce house, train ride, glowing swing sets, and games. We saw quite a few families with kids of all ages, including a lot of strollers enjoying the show and taking advantage of the hundreds of photo ops. No doubt many of the pics will end up on next year's Christmas cards. All in all, this was a very enjoyable experience.

That being said, I'd try to avoid this place in the future if I could. With multiple ways in and out of here, it was with great surprise that the police blocked all but 1 way in. I'm sure they have a logical reason for doing that but it made it so the were massive jams trying to get from 84 to the parking. Then, they rely on the actual traffic lights to move the flow of traffic instead of manually controlling it. It was a massive cluster F. I was about 2 hours ahead of kickoff when I got off the highway and spent about 50 mins to go a mile. The parking at the venue was $30 and I had prepaid but they did also take cash on site. This lead to even more delays trying to park as the attendants had to make change and run credit cards. They have a bunch of grassy fields in the back which worked ok except for the torrential downpours making the fields flood (bring you boots if it's raining). The stadium itself was ok with the highlight for me being the food and beverage. They had a nice selection of local craft beer and the food was as good as you can get at a venue like this. If the food was bad this would be a 1 star review. There also isn't much cover on the concourse so pre match everyone was crowded into small areas trying to stay dry. Getting out was equally as bad except this time they use all the routes in and out. Great, except when it sends you 4 miles in the opposite direction because you just happened to get into that row. It seems like locals/uconn folks know the secrets but as a one and done visitor it was painful. Overall, decent stadium with a decent food experience but getting in and out is poorly organized. Try to get there early and maybe even leave a bit early to beat the nonsense.

What a beautiful theater in the capital of Connecticut!…read more My wife & I hopped on the Port Jeff ferry (after a quick detour to Cracker Barrel) and in about one hour we were parking at the garage across the street. The entrance to the theater was a little chaotic but once inside we made our way to our comfortable seats. But before we sat, I need a cocktail to get the concert started. I ordered a well crafted cocktail and the bartender had a cashless payment system, no cash?! Once seated, Earth, Wind & Fire opened for Lionel Richie? Both acts had a great montage from the 70s until today. The sound system and visual effects were awesome. People's Bank Arena was a nice place to see a headline concert. The theater is massive and the seating was comfortable.

We grabbed some classic concession items nachos, hot dogs, and a pretzel and everything was exactly what you'd expect for arena food. There was also a convenient grab-and-go station where we picked up peanuts M&M's, and vodka lemonade drinks, which made things easy without having to wait in another long line. Overall, the experience felt very similar to past visits before the name change. One thing I did notice was that there didn't seem to be drink carts walking around the floor like before, which was a bit of a miss in terms of convenience. All in all, a solid experience efficient entry, decent food options, and a familiar concert atmosphere.

Cinestudio is an independent film theater that opened on the campus of Trinity College in Hartford,…read moreConnecticut in February 1970. It was founded by a group of Trinity College students that included Peter Stott, Ted Kroll, Peter McMorris, Charles Rumsey, James Hanley, Anne Risdon, Larry Stires and Randy Man. The group of film-obsessed students made a home for themselves in a little-used lecture hall inside the Clement Chemistry Building. The room, unfortunately, possessed troubled acoustics. Within two years, and with the help of Ralph Mauro from National Theater Supply and Lonny Jennings at Dolby, the sound issues were rectified and the room was transformed into a recreation of a 1930s film house. The grand opening (a double feature of "Alice's Restaurant" and The Beatles' "Yellow Submarine") was sold out. Cinestudio screens a variety of second-run, independent, foreign, and classic films. The single-screen venue has a seating capacity of approximately 485, 4K Digital Cinema systems, as well as 35mm and 70mm film projectors for use in studio archive presentations. Cinestudio features a spectacular gold Austrian screen curtain that rises at every show, real balcony seating, and the gold lion courant insignia. I recently visited Cinestudio for the first time. I read about it and an online article and couldn't believe that I had never heard of it before. I parked in a small parking lot on Summit Street and followed the sign which led me through a stone archway. As I walked along the Main Quad, I saw the neon color-changing lights of Cinestudio. Entering Cinestudio is a blast from the past. I purchased my ticket at the Fred Pfeil Memorial Ticket Booth (only $10 a show) and then headed to the concessions area where I purchased a giant bucket of popcorn for only $5. A volunteer told me, "The balcony is nice, but if this is your first time here then I recommend the lower level. You can hear the sound system much better." The interior of the theater was absolutely gorgeous with red accents. The film that I was seeing during my visit was the 1978 remake of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers": part of the theater's ongoing series "Our National Nightmare: 2026 Anxieties in 1970s American Film". Many screenings at Cinestudio are introduced by a guest speaker; this one featured Roger Benham. Although I have seen this film a number of times before, this was my first time seeing it on the silver screen....and it was so much more frightening now. This was my first visit to Cinestudio, but it certainly won't be my last!

"Oh, I want to sit on my porch and pick on my old guitar And…read morejust hope you're hangin' loose where ever you are" (Johnny Cash) Our group of 40 had a blast at the Tine Dale Party Porch tonight. It's a group venue at Dunkin Park. Our group deal got us a two and a half hour buffet chock full of these goodies - 1/3lb Grilled Burgers, Grilled Hot Dogs, Pulled Pork, Mac N' Cheese, Pasta Salad, lettuce/tomato/cheese, Potato Chips, Chocolate Chip Cookies and Non-Alcoholic Beverages. The Party Porch is in the upper deck rightfield corner, just by the foul pole. There were at least a dozen tables and chairs for us to hang out, chit chat with our friends, eat and drink and occasionally watch the ball game. The game ticket and food ran us about $45 per person, so it was a pretty good value considering what we received. Tickets were e-mailed to us and we had the choice to paper print them or download them on our phone to be scanned at the gate. I want to give a big shout out to the two staff members we interacted with. Cassandra was our bartender and buffet stocker. Anthony was our greeter, wrist band provider and a very genial host. Both were outstanding.
