Yo, I'm going to NY/NJ next week
Actually first week is in NJ and NY, second week is in CT
Any recommendations?
Last time I was in NY (Aug 01) I did a wee bit of touristy stuff - Empire State, WTC, Ellis Island and all, plus I went to Bleaker Bob's, got some records and met a CroMags replacement drummer on the subway wink
This time it'll be museums and a bit more wandering about.

Anything else?

I don't really like any sort of art or creativity in the world but I might go along and 'not get it'.

OK hon - do you still want me to ask? cause I'll phone my dad in a bit. What stuff are you interested in seeing then? You could go to the Public Library and recreate scenes from famous movies such as The Day after Tomorrow and Ghostbusters...

Have a good time, and take lots of pics to show us.

I'm flattered, but follow Ambrose Bierce's dictum from the Devil's Dictionary:
Bride, n. A woman with a fine prospect of happiness behind her.

I loved the MoMA. But I also liked the Jekyll and Hyde club or whatever it was called, embarrassed so my cultural aspirations aren't that high...

Right around the corner from the yippie museum is a little coffee shop called Vox Populi which is nice and i think has vegan baked goodies. .Although why I'm sharing tips with someone who "doesn't like creativity in the world" i don't know smile
