After that it was to the Workd trade are where we did the memorial museum, listened to a fire chief who was working that day on the initial rescue mission before the towers came down (which was incredibly detailed and sad) then we went up the one world tower to the observatory at the top.

After this we got cab back to the hotel, had a kip before we went out for an evening meal and then we had booked to go to a comedy club at the upper west side which was a great nights entertainment.

Day 4

Up early, went to grand central station, then down to Greenwich village to Mr dennehy's bar, which is an Everton bar to watch the Palace game. After that we had a walk around the surrounding area, found tge Friends building and then got on the High Line, which is a disused over head railway track which has been turned into gardens and is a really nice walk back into the city, after we'd done we stopped off at a pizzeria and had something to eat.

After this we did some gift shopping then due to all the walking we had relax before heading to Macy's at night and then on to Hard Rock Cafe for a humongous tea and dessert

Day 5

Packed, then off to Central Park to do more of what we hadn't done earlier in the holiday, we had some dinner at shake shark then over to the Museum of Natural History. Once we'd spent time there we had a coffee in trump tower before heading to the airport to come home. All in all a fantastic holiday and I can't see it being too many months before I'm back.

That sounds awesome (and pretty much exactly the same as our trip, almost to the letter!!!) Such a great city. Did the Knicks win when you went?!

Holiday cost £1200

Attraction tickets for things like the skyscrapers, boat tours and things like that were £250 (you buy an 'explorer pass' with access to either 3,5,7 or 10 attractions and there are 80 to choose from)

And we took about $1300

So in total about 2.5k but we didn't need as much spends as that it turned out.

No, Washington wizards did, the locals weren't happy as Washington got to 100 before the 3rd quarter was out.

I wouldn't go in cattle, we flew first this time as it was a special occasion and our flight times were both dead quick at roughly 6 hrs but I'm way too tall for 6 hours in cattle.

Is price difference much different?

Substantial, to be honest. We got the holiday in the BA sale and if we had gone the day before or day after the day we did it would've been double the cost, so you can get lucky but it was still 5,500+ for flights and hotel.
