We are a family of 4 (with two high school age kids) and will visit New York City in April. There are too many things to see in few days we are there so.... What would be the top 6 "must sees" ?
Answer
Do not take notice of what `the one` wrote. we went to NYC last May on holiday fro UK and LOVED it. we were lucky enough to go for 7 days, so could take our time seeing everything.
I would recommend you buy tickets for the open top hop on hop off bus tours, the blue is the one we used and found it to be fantastic. we went on the uptown tour first (not a lot to see though, so if your short on time, you could skip this part), the downtown tour is better, we hopped off at china town and did a bit of shopping, then hopped back on again, went down towards wall street, saw WTC site, then round to see the wall street bull, hop off for something to eat and back on the bus for the nighttime tour. the nighttime tour is one of the most fabulous tours to see in NYC, you will go on the bus and it goes across the Brooklyn bridge to Brooklyn and in the dark, you'll see the necklace of lower manhattan lit up. beautiful trip, freezing cold one but beautiful.
the next day, you could spend shopping, a trip to Woodbury commons is well worth it, we got the bus from Port Authority to it, it is an outlet mall a wee bit out of NYC, but it has great shops, GAP, armani exchange, banana republic, Nike, Etc we spend 3/4 of our budget here, then once you have dumped your bags in the hotel, a walk up 5th avenue from empire state building to the park is a good trip too (only if you enjoy shopping though)at night go up the empire state building, as we would always recommend doing it at night.
The next day, go on the TV and Movie tour, this is a great trip and a good day out, you'll see where films like wall street, bride wars, miss congeniality were made, as well as programmes like friends, cosby show, etc. whilst it is still light go up the rockerfella centre, as this is an amazing sight.
if you have time, you really, really need to see Grand Central Terminal, it is a beautiful building.
One place I would NOT recommend you visit is Madamme Tussauds, this was NOT worth the money or the time, when your in a fab place like NYC, your time is precious and this place is a waste of time. We did walk through Central park, but you'll need a whole day to walk round it all, so again if your short of time, I'd skim past it, just to see it.
A trip to Statue of Liberty is one of the most wonderful experiences ever, I went there on my 40th birthday, and it was very emotional, she truly is beautiful, but again it's something you could do without going over to if your short of time, but I'd certainly go on a boat around it to see it up close.
Hope you all enjoy your time in NYC

What are the "cool kids" wearing in high school?
Killer Bar
All I really see is Ralph Lauren. And sporty stuff. What are they wearing?
Answer
Fitting in is so out. All the cool kids in my school dress like twins everyday with their cliche clique. I usually just wear floral dresses, Hollister jeans, Coach bags, and I go to h&m, Betsey Johnson, and Nordstorms. A lot of kids in my school think wearing Nike slides, basketball shorts, and Aero graphic tees and mix matched socks is the coolest thing ever. I go to Lacoste sometimes but all I have to say is dress modest and have some sense in style.
