NYC isn't that much better sure we have a few cool tourist places
1) NYC - Statue of Liberty closed b/c of insufficent security measurements after 9/11
2) NYC - Ellis Island
3) NYC & SI - The Ferry (Runs between Lower Manhattan and Staten Island (nothing to See on Staten Island believe me

.))
4) NYC - World Trade Center -- may all rest in peace [A fence surrounding the footprints where WTC once stood

]
5) NYC - The Path station under WTC
6) NYC - 42nd. St - Grand Central Station and 42nd. Street - Times Square
7) NYC - 34th. St - The Empire State Building
8) All 5 Boroughs - The MTA / NYCTA Trains. =---= Just about every tourist that comes to NYC rides our trains at least 1 before they leave no matter where the train goes. I know this for a fact since I work for the company my sig says it all lol
9) Bronx - NY Yankees and Queens - NY Mets Stadiums
10) 34th. St - Madison Square Garden (Home of the NY Knicks)
11) Bronx Zoo
12) Bronx Botanical Gardens
13) {Heres one for a kicker} Brooklyn - JFK Airport / Queens - Laguardia Airport
I'm not very good at tour guiding but I can tell you bring at least a couple of shorts and tees and long pants and shirts - The weather here this week has been beautiful granting us to wear light clothes for a change however mother nature doesn't like NYC that much and will turn to ice cold w/ little to no pre notices.
Get well soon Wayne C. Hope everything turns out for the best.
