New York

WOW what a place. Having booked to go for 5 nights with my family at Easter we were stranded due to the volcano eruption BUT what a city to be stranded in!! It gave us a real chance to really see the city for all it's glory.

The sites are all a definite must: Central Park, Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Ground Zero, Empire State Building, Rockafeller Centre,Times Square, Madison Square Garden and of course shopping both in the city and also well worth a trip to Woodborough Common (out of town outlet mall)

Make sure you also take some time out and wander the streets of Greenwich Village, China Town and Little Italy. All totally safe and some wonderful restaurants. Why not take the sub way to just beyond Brooklyn Bridge and then walk back over the bridge at Sunset, a truly wonderful experience!

The people were so friendly and helpful and it is very easy to get around. Walking is easy just plan your route and of you go......Try jogging in Central Park it's well worth the effort! You along with the 1000's of New Yorkers who do so daily. And If you are a sports fan, try and get to a baseball game at the new Yankee's stadium.
