It's a trip with my mom so...
1) Clubbing is low priority.
2) It's all about shopping.
3) I'm gonna have to go to a museum.
Based on that here is what I'm thinking so far:
Thursday, Nov 26, 2009
- Arrive around 6am
- Check into hotel and meet up with Mom
- Watch the Macy's Day Parade
- Spend the afternoon in Central Park (ice skating, zoo, castle, Strawberry Fields, The Metropolitan Museum of Art)
- Grab dinner near Times Square
- See a Broadway Show

From here it's just a matter of showing up and seeing how things go! If you have feedback on my itinerary let me know what I'm missing!
Go to 'Top of the Rock' - aka the top of the Rockefeller Center. Best view of NYC.
ReplyDeleteAlso if you are in SoHo there is a great French restaurant - forget the name but it is very famous....could probably find it in any travel book. AND don't forget to go to Magnolia for a cupcake (def not my favorite cupcake but it's where the craze started...SJP in Sex and the City )
Thank you for the suggestions! I will make sure to add them to my itinerary!
