Hey guys, Im booked in!!!!!! how exciting. I will be staying with the Beacon the night before and the contiki hotel in Anehiem for a couple of days but I will more than likely be staying at the Chelsea Star during my stay in NY. Boys I have read reviews about the DaVinci and I think you are taking your lives into your own hands with that one. But we will have to catch up for drinks while we are there because as it turns out I will be staying in NY for about a week and a half now. COOL HUH!!!!  |

Well Im down near Grenwich Village and almost directly across fromt the Madison Square Gardens. Im not quite sure where that is in relation to you because I lost the map I was looking at, silly me, but I am south from Central Park about 8 blocks I think and only a couple of blocks from the water as far as I can tell. You have my email so any going around give me a buzz. I CANT WAIT AHHHHHHH I am going to be in NY from the 23rd May AHHHHHHH. HOW EXCITING!!!!!!

My sis don't really mind about not getting into night clubs. she said she'll wait until we get to canada and then get totally inebriated. Yes I am strange but oh well it keeps me from going nuts! Heather you might want to head to the shops with my sister Sarah. you may need a retractable leash for her though to keep her away from really expensive stuff. Oh keep her away from any manolo blaniks, for the love of god! she also wants to go to MOMA as well. she is a big Monet and Van Gogh fan. so you may have an art buddy to go with the day that I want to go to ground zero cause she isn't that keen to go there. Ooh I can't wait to meet everyone. it is going to kick some major butt.
Regret Nothing, Fear Less

Heather, as a NYer, I can tell you that you can't be near all those things. Madison Square Garden is at 8th Ave and 33rd Street, Greenwich Village is below 12th street, and Central Park is in the 60s. Since Manhattan is an island, there is water on all sides, so I can't tell you how far you are from water. Don't worry, though, everything is very easily accessible by subway. Good Luck! Allie |

Ooops my bad. Ahh well I guess I will just have to get lost everywhere. Im from Perth there isnt a lot over here so my distances etc suck, and all the streets having numbers instead of names is going to confuse me =)Anyway, I am going to go nuts at the shop Claire you might have to have a leash on both of us....shoes drool drool. Unfortunatly I will be backpacking for 12 months while in Canada so my spending will be limited. I was thinking of going to ground zero but hadnt made up my mind about it yet. Was there anyone wanting to go to a Braodway show with me? Hey we really should start up an email thing cause this forum is going to get really long soon.
