craftyhunnypie Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Have a fab time! Sure you will. I keep saying I'll take hubby there as I've been & he's not. I know he'd love it. Some of the street food is fantastic! Oh & just stop for a minute & look up at some of the skys"Ooops, word censored!"ers & rooftops. It's a different world - sometimes there are amazing roof gardens & the sheer height of the sky s"Ooops, word censored!"ers - takes your breath away. It is wierd in Central Park as it can be so peaceful, when all around there is mayhem going on! The portions are huuuuge - you might want to get into the habit of sharing! Shopping is wonderful. I am truly.. Soak it all up ANH! Safe Journey.. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Well, that was the quickest 5 days ever . Had a brilliant time . Walked almost everywhere so we all had sore feet (but hopefully worked off a few calories ). We did: - Top of the Rock (no queue at all ) - fabulous views - Staten Island Ferry - not a bad view of Statue of Liberty - across Brooklyn Bridge and back (on the hottest day ), had pizza and icecream for recovery purposes! - 2 morning runs in Central Park - beautiful, something to see round every corner - Natural History Museum - by accident arrived at 4.45 and got in free as it closed at 5.45 (whizzed round and saw enough!) - 9/11 Memorial - stunning memorial, very moving and humbling - Intrepid Air, Sea and Space Museum (including the space shuttle ), set on an aircraft carrier. More for the boys but still enjoyable - Chelsea High Line (a disused raised railwayline which has been landscaped and planted and is a really lovely walk - long walk through Greenwich Village (really nice), Little Italy (nothing special) and Chinatown (great Chinese meal) - Grand Central Terminal (stunning) - walks up Broadway (not my cup of tea) and all the main shopping streets (mostly way out of my price range!) - bought a nice top in Bloomingdales and some sports gear in Nike but that was it. The boys got some nice t-shirts and sports gear too. Salisbury Hotel was really central, a bit shabby but clean and comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
