Day 32: Thursday in New York

Our decision to stay in New Jersey last night meant we had close to a full day in NY today, instead of arriving late afternoon.

After dropping off the car at Hertz in NJ, we found a cab who got us to our accommodation, Sohotel in Soho. Apparently New Jersey cabs don’t go to Manhattan very often. We had to use our GPS to get him here. After dropping our bags at the hotel we set off to get subway passes organised and decided to head south to the 9/11 site and Wall Street.

We then headed over to Staton Island, past the Statue of Liberty and straight back again. Not a bad sight seeing trip for a freebie.

We then headed back to the hotel, checked in and dressed for the show. A walk through the Times Square area to Phantom of the Opera at the Majestic Theatre. Brilliant. Late night. Lots to see and do tomorrow.

    Welcome to NYC, your in a great location with Lower Manhattan. Make sure you do a walk over the Brooklyn Bridge and go underneath it for some unique streetscape. Beautiful photos from the Staten Island Ferry 🗽 remember it’s a BIG CITY that also reaches to the sky! I do recommend the Grayline Hop on/off bus to help get your bearings. Also if your a Seinfeld fan make sure you have a meal at Tom’s Restaurant on the Upper Westside on 112th W & Broadway 😀
