Hi - we are going to NY in June - going on a road trip (WI - NY)... We are looking for the must do's in NY as well as along the way and like all of us we are on a BUDGET!!! We are lucky that we have a place to stay in NJ (not far from NY) for Free (Family members home) so that will help a lot on saving for fun things!
Things we have planned already:
1) Boat Tour - 2 hour - See the sights Satutue of Liberty etc
2) Toys R Us Times Square Visit & FAO Visit & American Girl Store Visit (Reservation for Lunch at the American Girl Cafe)
3) Dad & Stepmom are headed to the Met - on the day my daughter and I do the Toy Stores. We didnt think my daughter could handle a whole day in an art muesum
Our traveling group includes my Dad (61 year old History Buff), Step-Mom (65 year old Artist), My Daughter (Typical 7 year old all girlly girl), and Myself (33 year old laid back lady) - I am the only one that has ever been to NYC (well besides the family that lives in NJ that will be doing some of the days with us)
Love your thoughts and help!!! it will be here FAST!!!!
