Hi, my name is Aidan. I am the webmistress of daydreamz.net. I am 25 years old, licensed Early Childhood Educator who lives on the west coast of Canada in gorgeous British Columbia.Things are really starting to come into place for our two week holiday in July. We are first heading to Toronto to visit with Bryan’s Dad, then flying down to NEW YORK CITY for four nights! I just got off Expedia.ca booking our hotel. We are staying in Queens and it is about a five minute walk to a subway station. We are planning on using the subway and buses as our main source to get around the city as it would be a lot cheaper than paying for cabs.
We plan on doing the whole tourist bit, except catching a show on Broadway (tickets are way to expensive). Going to the top of the Empire State Building, seeing the Status of Liberty, Ground Zero, Rockefeller Center, New York Aquarium, Central Park, Watch a Yankees Game in Yankee Stadium (July 23), Visit Time Square, etc… There is just so much to see and do in NYC it is going to be hard to organize it all but we will get to see everything we want to see and more!
This trip is going to be so memorable and exciting. We have not had a real holiday together ever. What I am looking forward to most is getting on the plane and taking off. I want to get away from it all so bad, I am already counting down the days until we leave.
I am still stuck between buying the New York Pass or not. Is it really worth it for the price? Do you have any tips or advice on visiting NYC? I want to make sure we do not forget anything important.

That trip sounds great! I’m sure that you will a nice time. I way too far from the USA to even visit NY! So I don’t really know about the New York Pass. I’d love to visit it one day though.

NY is AMAZING! But there’s just no possible way of “forgetting anything important.” Your plans are already action-packed! Take lots of pictures, but make sure it’s a digital camera you’ve got, or else you’ll find yourself buying a $8 disposable! You’re gonna have so much fun
Have a safe trip!

I’ve never been to NYC for more than a day, but when we were there we got an all day metro card so we could ride the subway as many times as we wanted. Which really came in handy especially when we got lost.
I loved going to Central Park and walking around there. We were going to go on the Statue of Liberty boat, but the wait was WAY too long. Instead we went on the Staten Island Ferry which is right there, it’s free, and it takes you right by the Statue so you can get pictures, you just don’t get off at it.

I’ve always wanted to visit New York, myself. I’ve never been there, and I’ve always been an extremely big fan of large cities since I myself live in one… anyways, let us know how it goes!
