There is no camping to be found in New York City. We stayed about 1.5 hours out of the city at Allaire State Park in New Jersey. We learned the train schedule pretty quickly.
New Jersey/New York are not RV friendly. I highly suggest flying and staying in hotels.
We had a really big day Thursday. Up at 6 am and in the truck before 7am, then drive 45 minutes to the train station to take it into NYC. Arrived around 9am.
Our first look ????
We booked a city bus tour from 10am to 4pm, in a luxury bus. We couldn’t get a ticket for the glass top bus, so it was difficult at times to see the height of buildings. Well worth the tour, especially if you only have a few days here.
Copied a pose Stacey did while she was on a high school trip to NYC.
John Lennon shot in front of the gates to his home.
Rockefeller Center.
Roller skating in the summer and ice skating in the winter.
And of course, FAO Swartz
NYC taxi made out of Lego
Staten Island Ferry
The line to get on. No worries about having room. The ferries hold 5,000 people!
Empire State building
Cool stuff
Making friends everywhere we go ????
We caught the 2nd last train out of New York and got home just before 1 am.
A 19 hour day, and 24,184 steps, which includes the 6 hour bus tour and 1 hour horse-drawn carriage ride thru Central Park.
Exhausted and every part of our bodies hurt. Wouldn’t have it any other way.
