Lucky you - We loved Central Park. The get-on, get-off bus tour was a really good way to see round the city Try to get to a show if you can - some good bargains can be picked up at the booths. I'm not really a shopper but enjoyed Macy's. Hope you have a wonderful time.

We were in New York in June, just loved it, if you fancy a show on Broadway I can definately reccomend 'The Jersey Boys' a great show about The Four Seasons and Frankie Valley.

Hi I went in May and November last year for 7 nights each time with my daughter who 'loves to shop'.There is a great day out for shopping at Woodbury Common Retail . Go to the main bus station , the buses go direct I think something like 2 an hour all day.Its a great journey through the countryside ,we went on an early bus I think the shops open at 9.30. We bought another suitcase each while we were there to carry all our purchases . But when you have had enough head for the bus queue as you may wait ages to get back the traffic at night is a nightmare The shops are amazing in New York,Century 21 is a bit like TKMax almost a jumble sale but real bargains if you have the drive to search for stuff.Its located by Ground Zero.We have just booked 2 weeks there in spring next year while BA have a great sale on flights.Put Woodbury into Google as you can see all the special offers at the time you are going. Enjoy x
