West 20th Street, Chelsea - New York City

We visited New York City as part of our 'around the world' honeymoon... We only had four nights in New York but we still managed to see a fair bit of the city...and we loved it all!!!! It's a fantastic city to visit and thre is so much to see and do!! We found it so easy to get around and didn't have any problems at all there.

We were lucky enough to stay in Manhattan, in an area called Chelsea...it was a greaet location and very 'New York'... :)

Our other stops on our honeymoon included: Hawaii, London, Egypt (Cairo, Dahab, Luxor, Aswan & Abu Simbel) and Thailand (Bangkok & the River Kwai).

Pros and Cons

Pros:An amazing place to visit...so much to see and do...
Cons:Being the US it's expensive for Aussies...
In a nutshell:Definitely worth visiting if you get the chance!

Last visit to New York City: Oct 2005

You should try driving around NYC in a limo (I can say that from experience - a cousin of mine gave me her limo and driver for a day!)

squirrels are just rats with bushy tails. You don't have them in Australia? Look on the page of spGood for discussion of black squirrels. N>

Congratulations on your wedding! You sure did a lot in 4 days; I don't understand the squirrel thing either but that's okay ('c',) Greetings from Calgary ~ Helen
