Like all things, living in the big apple is not free! A wonderful book that breaks down in categories for foodies (that's me), romantic weekends, historical sites, antiques, art towns. kid friendly escapes, festivals and the great outdoors. In 2008-9, we are all facing one of the largest economic crunch: but it does not mean we have to sacrifice relaxation and adventure time. The books gives you enough information to do your own research to fit into your budget: this I like about the book - it does not try to give you everything. It provides good information on how to get there (critical since we are reliant on publick transportation), key things to do and see, selection of places to stay and eat and websites to do your own research to determine how long you want to stay. I love this book as it introduced me to places that I never would have thought of going and especially we choose not to own a car in the city. We are definately going to use this book a lot this year since we plan to stay more locally.
