I've done Europe on a budget over the last thirty years, fancy a change. Though I know that a week isn't long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cosmicblue Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 (edited) New York? Went there is 2012 for 10 days to placate the wife and expected to hate it - and didn't, Its like no other city on the planet that I've ever visited - Stay in the financial district (that's the bottom bit nearest the Statue of Liberty) and discover it goes quiet at night - must visit the Mexican: Mad Dogs and Beans: https://www.maddogandbeans.com/ down there - their Margaritas are lethal, walking back to the hotel was VERY difficult and it was only 2 blocks away. - The have a couple of nights up in Mid-town, just south of central park - nuts, construction sites work 24 hours a day as, its seems, everything else does too.
