So far we have no real plans for while we're up there. If you guys want to get together, just go ahead and do that, and let me know when and where. If I can go, that'd be cool; if not, then you guys still have a good time. win win!

certainly somethin to cherish as your son wont comprehend till his later years..

still maintain my paraphanelia of welcome documents and gifts when it was reopened..

regardless of all the issues banzai has pointed out.. nyc still imho.. holds a mystique

But I base my Opinion on NY and NYC after living there. I dont like crowds. NYC is not the place to be. Sure you can get GOOD chineese food deliveres at 3 AM in the upper east side, but why have to worry about your life walking down the street

Rudolph changed that city so much. Times square is actually a safe place to walk around now at night. The subways are safe now too even at night.



NYC isnt to big there is so much to do there so much to see it will take me years if visiting, I dont think I will ever get tired of it. NYC seems small when your on a subway car and lissed your transfer. Next thing you know your out of Manhatten and in Brooklyn or Bronx. LOL!



Would I live there? No I love it here in Florida. But its one of my favorite places to visit.
