The hotel isn't actually at the airport, its about a 10 minute drive. Very nice though and we got it for £37 i think via Travel Republic. Well worth it! Parking was an additional £10 though! The M&S food shop over the road is very useful!

Looking forward to the rest of your TR. Did you take the Staten island Ferry at all?

G

No we didn't

It was on our list to do on day 3 (after the 9/11 memorial) but it was just too cold! We wanted to walk the Brooklyn bridge too and didn't manage that! Two of my main must do's! I suppose its a very good reason to return though!

I know, I loved that about the place, everywhere you look there is something you recognise from film/tv!
