Hi Jean - loving the report, My son and I did our 3rd trip to NY this spring - I have to say I loved it with the better weather. Like you we had only ever been before in winter. Central park was fantastic.

We got stranded in NY cos of the volcano, so was there for 16 days!

Look forward to the rest of the trippie

Ellens was fairly reasonable as far as reasonable goes in New York. We paid $50 for our 2 meals plus a drink. they do come round with the bucket as well asking for your support to help them through singing college!
Any questions, just fire away karen.
The drinks in the hotel are expensive as you would expect. when we arrived we were parched and had 2 orange juices at $5 each. We didnt mind as we were so thirsty but we didnt buy any more! There is a pharmacy on the corner and also a Duane Reade nearby which has all sorts there so stock up on your cold drinks etc there. We also had a drink in the Starbucks most evenings on the way back to the hotel.

See more...
