JClarke - if you are going to visit in NYC, just go and walk at the corner of 42 street and 6th street. You will find a lot of interesting there.

Niagara Falls, NY - I think that you would enjoy to see the huge waterfall at the border of Canada.

Too far from NYC for JClarke. He's only sticking around the Atlantic ocean cities mostly.

JClarke · 07-02-2009, 09:57 PM

Nigara Falls will wait until later.

That's okay. Are you planning to visit at National Institute for the Deaf in Rochester in New York? It's a deaf college. Actually, it is part of Rochester Institute of Technology. It is 1 hour and 30 minutes from Rochester to Niagara Falls - approximately 84 miles (135 km). It is just the idea how far in these places.

I posted to tell you that there are some prostitutes on these streets in NYC as well-known for prostitute criminals for years. I bet that you would be so shock to see some women looking a young man for a sex business. It is a very dangerous place.

JClarke - What do you really want to see in NYC?

Metropolitan Museum of Art (a huge building and long hours)

Empire State Building to observe the view of the big city

Radio City Music Hall (not sure if it's a good idea for you to watch the performance because I don't know when it provides the interpreters for deafies. Maybe, you won't able understand the interpreters because of ASL. I went there, and it was nice. Well, everyone is different - some of them love it or hate it.)

Statue of Liberty Tour (a good one, it is on the island. It cost about $12.00 to ride on a ferry boat to the island. I did not have time to go there.)

Rockefeller Center - a famous for its skating rink during Christmas time, some shopping are too expensive.

Walk around the Times Squares

Not sure about the Central Park (free) - I don't remember it.

Not sure about United Nations for the tour.

Maybe at St. John the Divine Cathedral - a largest Cathedral church. It would fix Statue of Liberty under its dome.

New York City Landmarks Sights visitor Guide - NYC sightseeing attractions in New York Sights, NY

You should always secure your passport and wallet. There are many professional thieves in the city. I think that it is cheaper to go on a subway - it is faster than a taxi. But, maybe, you might want to ride on a taxi to see some view of the city. You have to pay a tip to a taxi driver (money).

I would say that, for example, a nice shirt cost 60 dollars in the city, and the "same" shirt would cost 14 dollars out of the city. You probably would see some artists, on the sidewalk, sell their nice painting for a pretty good price.

If you are going to Gallaudet University in Washington D.C., I think that it would be interesting for you to walk around in the D.C. with your group. The real problem is the off the campus of the Gallaudet is the highest crime. But, I was told that it improved a lot and less crime. It is also expensive at shopping - same thing in NYC. At the Capital of D.C., it would be fun for you. It is cleaner than in NYC. Many famous museums, White House tour if less traffic, and many more activities there.

I am aware of these dangerous parts, I will be with a friend while I am in NYC... Let my friend do the expertise of NYC.

coolgirlspyer90 · 07-03-2009, 01:34 AM

ugh.. I have to do a marathon for my band...

Its called Rock-a-ton. I have to sit in a rocking chair for about 12 hours from 7pm-7am at the high school. We have to raise money for the band. So we have to get pledges. They said we will play the wii, rock band, guitar hero, and do a segment called: "ask the directors" (of the marching band), etc. We would also have sodas to keep us awake, food to keep us going for the night. SO basiclly its a lock-in. OH did i also mention this was REQUIRED for us to do this?? oh yeah. big time. But its also a pain in the butt because we would have to beg for money from our neighbours who already gave us money for the flowers sale for the band and for this upcoming calendar sale for the band and for whats going to happen through the school year. ugh, so much to do.

I'm not really looking forward going out on the neighborhoods asking for money or selling things to them just to raise money for the band. I tell you, its a lot of work to get those money but also a tiring and boring work. I just rather play on my instrument.

diehardbiker · 07-03-2009, 06:51 AM

Thats the then, now there isn't any down there. NYC mayor has cleaned up that area few years ago

How about making a little sailing boat with your BB and watch it sailing just for fun?
