Blisster, there's like a million things to do in NYC.

How bout going to the observation deck at the Empire State Bldg, or a cruise around Manhattan (Circle Line). Also, try to get to a Yankees game, it's an interesting experience, even if you're not a baseball fan. If you do go to Yankee Stadium, be sure to take one of those stadium tours. Another cool thing to do is head down to Washington Square Park after dark. They usually have street performers that are quite entertaining.

Oh yeah, if you're into museums NYC won't disappoint. Check out the Museum of Natural History on Central Park West.

Have Fun & Be Safe!

Just got back from a Yakees game. Crappy game but a great time. Gonna head to the WTC site tomorrow and maybe do ChinaTown for some shopping.
I'll be back next weekend so keep those suggestions coming!

Statue of Liberty

Post by jwiddy »

Hey... If you want a great FREE boat ride past the Statue of Liberty, take the Staten Island Ferry. To get there, take Broadway ALL the way down to Battery Park- Go past the park and you'll see the Ferry. (or just ask a cabbie to take you to the Staten Island Ferry) The boat ride is 25 minutes each way and FREE both ways. Going from Manhattan, make sure you sit on the RIGHT side of the boat as you walk on. The boats goes right past the Statue.

Try some of the BEST buffalo wings you'll ever have at "Down the Hatch" in The Village. http://www.nycbestbars.com/downthehatch/

Also, The Intrepid Air Force Carrier is pretty cool. It's off the West Side Highway. They let you tour the boat.

Good Luck
If I think of anything else I'll let ya know

I loved the Lady Liberty tour blisster. I went in October with my wife back in 97' so we did not have to wait in line. Might be another story during the summer.

Oh yeah, mid-town traffic sucks during rush hour. lol

That is a nice tour.........screw rush hour...midtown traffic sucks at anytime of the day. I got stuck in a jam on Madison avenue where Celia Cruz's funeral was, was a nightmare.

I hate driving into the city, but I have no choice! I'd rather drive than take mass transit!

It's a little too muggy and humid today for a stroll by Union Square.

Catch a flick at the Loews Orpheum in Kips Bay (32nd St & 3rd Av), or check out some life-sized wax look-a-likes at the Maddam Tussauds in Times Square. I saw the replica of Morgan Freeman the other night and it blew my mind.

If you want to check out lots of hot tourists babes definitely stroll down 34th St and Herald Square. It's always packed so I'm sure you can grope a butt or two and get away with it. :D

Well, we went down to the site of the WTC to check it out. Quite a moving experience I must say. However the skies opened up and it started pouring reain. We were gonna do the Staten Island ferry ride, but the reain was just too much so we had some lunch and headed back to the hotel.
I'll prolly go out later tonight for some dinner and drink.

I will be back next monday and tuesday so if anyone wants to try and meet up lemme know.
