Hello!
It's Raegan and earlier this month I visited New York City. We drove to Newark and, as an experiment, stayed at The Wyndham Garden Newark Airport. We took the train into the city each day. I was hoping to save a bit of money by doing this but the expense of the train and the inconvenience of not being IN the city were, in my opinion, not worth the savings. We took the hotel shuttle to Newark Airport. Then the airport tram to the train station. Then the New Jersey Transit Train into New York Penn Station ($12.50 each way per person) and then the subway to wherever we wanted to be so it was inconvenient, to say the least. It took about 90 minutes each way from hotel to final destination. Other than that hassle, though, the trip was fantastic. The weather was cool but clear and beautiful! We visited the 9/11 Memorial, Times Square and Rockefeller Plaza, Fifth Avenue, South Street Seaport, Brooklyn Bridge, Greenwich Village, etc. We ate yummy New York style pizza and cheesecake and shopped til we dropped (almost literally) we walked miles! I love New York and will continue to visit every chance I get!!
