What is there to do in NYC that tourists dont know about? -

I am going to NYC for Christmas this year and I want to try to experience as much of NYC as I can. I am trying to look for cool fun places to go and see that most people who are not from NYC don��t know about. Is there any great restaurant and such that are really must do��s. here is a list of stuff I already know about if you have any other ideas please let me know.China townRockefeller centerWindow displaysKatzThe river caf��Of course the sights like empire state building, statue of liberty etcI��m looking for stuff tourists don��t know about/ the real NYC

We just got back from NYC about 3 months ago and I m definitely going back! We were there for 3 days, but I think 5 days should be enough. Get the 3+ day NewYorkPass, it will save you a lot of money! http://www.newyorkpass.com/ Also, buy your NYC T-shirt ( 5 for 10.99) at Times SQ.Around Empire State building, they have a lot of cheap NYc sounviers. Hotel wise, book early. We stayed in Chinatown (Hotel 91) but it s clean and fairly cheap- though you can heard the subway at night, it didn;t bother us. Becareful of big and cheap hotel, I heard it s not clean,, The last thing you want is to bring home some bed bugs.Broadway Show: If Wicked was too expensive ( it was for us), so we went to see Fuerza Bruta , we got a coupon online and pay half price =) so check online! .. Let put it this way, we will never forget this show.. we had a blast!http://www.broadwaybox.com/ ? for cheap shows! Ps. We finally watched Wicked�� In San Francisco, it was great!

many things. but why should new yorkers give up that information? i still know places from when i used to live there and still stop in when i am town. i would never tell anyone about them. i had to find them to begin with.

make beleive that you live on the top floor of a walk up and drag a shopping cart full of groceries and/or laundry up to the top floor. Great exercise and so much fun

What is the fastest way to ge from newark airport to 225 E 17th St, NY., NY? -

Taxi. It s expensive, but that s the fastest.To speed it up, you can call in advance. The two easiest numbers to remember are:Carmel: 212-666-6666Tel Aviv: 212-777-7777Let them know your flight number and arrival time and they ll meet you there, no taxi lines.You can also take the train or the shuttle bus. It ll still be a little pricey, but not nearly as expensive. It ll be a lot slower though. (Unless you re coming in during rush hour, then the train might actually be faster than the cab.) If you take the train or bus, take any downtown train from where it lets you off (not the B or D, but I don t think you ll be at a B or D stop anyway). Get off at 14th street and take the L train toward Brooklyn. Get off at 3rd Avenue. Walk from there.

A car service is good, however, if you want to save money, take public transit from Newark Airport to the address in question. Here s how to get from EWR to 225 East 17th Street, which is located at the corner of East 17th Street and Rutherford Place.Step 1: take the Airtrain from the terminal to the Newark-Liberty International Airport train station.Step 2: at the Newark-Liberty International Airport train station, purchase a one way NJ Transit ticket from EWR to Penn Station New York and take any New York City-bound (eastbound) train from there to New York Penn Station. A one way ticket on NJ Transit from EWR to New York Penn Station will cost you $15.Step 3: at Penn Station, walk a block west along 34th Street to Broadway, and take the downtown (southbound) N , R , W or Q trains (Yellow Line on the subway map) from 34th Street-Hearld Square to Union Square - 14th Street.Step 4 at Union Square, exit the subway and follow the walking direction at the link below.http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d source=s��I hope this information is very helpful.Good luckNative New Yorker

try the shuttle, only $17 http://www.goairlinkshuttle.com/, otherwise cabs too but they are expensive

19.4 miles I looked it up and Joe s way sounds faster then what I came up with.

How long would it take to fly from New Jersey to Seattle Washington? -

Like if i were to leave at 8pm approx. what time would i arrive?

8:20 pm Depart Newark (EWR)Arrive Seattle (SEA) 11:46 pm Wed 30-DecDuration: 6hr 26mn Continental 1834 Nonstop flight

The flight is about 6-7 hours, depending on what kind of aircraft you are in, what speed the airline flies and if it s a direct flight or if you have to make a connection.All that said, an 8 PM flight will arrive at around midnight Seattle time (3 AM New Jersey time)

6-8 hours if you can get a non-stop (Continental usually runs a few each day). Best to leave from Newark, of course.Leaving Jersey at 8PM, you d arriv at Sea-Tac -- on a non-stop -- around 1AM.(Don t do it! I left Jersey a dozen years ago for Seattle, and have regretted it every day.)

Anywhere from 5:30 hrs. to 6:30 hrs. Three hours in the same time zones but because of the time zone change it takes about 5-7 hrs. So you would get in between 1:30 to 2:30 PST. Hope it helps :D
