Dale Stenseth's New York City 2007 Adventure
At the library, I found 7 tourist books on NYC. Three were from 2007. I checked those out and we took the best with us: Fodor's New York City 2007. I think there are a few more things we want to see on a future trip.
We flew east to New York JFK early Friday morning, 10/26/2007. It was rainy and wet until Sunday, when we returned. Taxi to mid-town Manhattan, before tolls and tip, is a flat $45.
Newark or La Guardia airport might be better.We went to visit relatives, to walk in Central Park, to ride the subways, and eat expensive food. Sandwiches and beverages for four at the Carnegie Deli will run you a hundred bucks. We got into MOMA and the Guggenheim for free. We saw Mamma Mia on Broadway, Saturday night. Good seats, second row.
Amazingly, pictures without flash are allowed in MOMA, but not in the Guggenheim.
Visited again on 5/18/2008, when Mark graduated from NY Law School, cum laude.
