So - we're going to NYC this weekend (sorry Fieryredhead - I won't be able to go to the Hafla with you). Its been on my mind a lot lately and I'd like to go to see it before the towers of light are gone.
I found a place in Jersey City that AAA recommended that's convenient (across the street from the Path) and cheap ($70 per night for two people) - its right near the Holland Tunnel. They have continental breakfast included, they have microwaves and refrigerators in the room and we're getting a king sized bed too. Wheee! So Friday after work we'll be heading to uncharted territory and trying our hand at finding our way around NYC on the subway (hmmm, wondering if I should pick up a Frommer's NYC book).
Any inexpensive suggestions of things to do (that you haven't mentioned already)?
Hee hee, in all of my anal-retentiveness I've never done anything this spontaneous before :)

Date: 2002-03-13 06:57 am (UTC)you will have sooo much fun! Oh, and when you are in St marks (assuming you are going shopping there, if you go to the end of the street (the one with all the cool shops, think its st marks street) and turn right, you'll see a japanese anime toy store (which is cool) BUT even better, just before the store is the worlds greatest french fry store. They have like 30 toppings and the fries are heavenly.
