4 hours in NYC


So, we were able to spend about 4 hours in New York City Today. Brian had never been before, so we hit mainly the touristy sites including Times Square, the Empire State Building, and the Guggenheim Museum. The weather wasnt all that great, but we did make the most of our time in the city.

We started by taking the Airtrain from JFK to the New York MTA. It took us about an hour and a half to get from JFK to Times Square, which was our first destination.

After that, we headed to the Empire State Building. As we have done for the rest of our trip, we relied on public transportation to get there rather than taking taxis. The empire state building was neat, but as Dave had been up it before, we decided against spending $18 a piece to get up it today considering that there was little to no visibility at the top.

From there we took a train back to JFK and were headed home shortly after. We had a great time in New York, and look forward to going back soon when we have more time.
