Mr. Jauble goes to nyc

[jauble]

Ok buddies Im coming into the city on the 19th of June and I am looking for things to do/see. I dont like touristy stuff for the most part and I do have a big reason to be there on Sunday. I am leaving from Laguardia that next Monday evening so I have some time to kill. I plan on checking out the show (hopefully twice) but what else should I do?

[Sue_Bender]

You could climb the New York Times building.


Everybody's doing it.

I didn't say I was coming to the city any time soon though.

Right. And he didn't say "gayest".

Man, I am glad you are around. That could have been really awkward

[jauble]

JR with the exception of sunday my schedule is free. I would like to check out the show friday (maybe monday as well as I leave monday evening). I would love to meet as many of you as possible.

[jauble]

Seriously what should I see/eat? If your cousin never came in to the city and also never fucked his sister (also your cousin) what would you reccomend?

[Leticia]

You should check out the bronx zoo.

It actually pretty cool.

[led37zep]

How long are you in the city?

[jauble]

How long are you in the city?

Thursday morning through Monday evening.

[Leticia]

There's also the Museum of Natural History, which I enjoy a lot.

If you're not gonna get a car, (you'd be better off without one) check out hopstop.com
they'll give you subway and bus directions to anywhere in the city.

:)

[led37zep]

If I was on that coast I'd make an effort to make plans to meet ya then bail at the last minute.

thanks for the suggestions Leticia...that does help a lot...especially for a MidWest boy that doesnt know his way around.

Carry your money in your weak hand, highest denomination on top...If thugs and street urchins see you have a bunch of cash, they'll respect you more..

[Coach]

Guggenhiem and Cloisters are nice..
Check out a broadway show?
Be sure to give directions to a large African American man when he asks "which way is Norf?"!!!

[Leticia]

I live right by the Cloisters and it is quite pretty.

When I was 17, though, we used to go there to drink and smoke and look out towards the bridge and water.

It was still pretty but in a up to no good kind of way...

[IamPixie]

That's the best kind of pretty.

Well then, allow me to combine (kinda) 2 of Leticia's suggestions.

You can go to The Museum of Natural History at West 79 street and Central Park West (on one side of Central Park)
AND the Metropolitan Museum of Art at East 82 street and 5th avenue (on the other side of Central Park).
AND visit the Central Park Zoo (INSIDE Central Park!)

All while enjoying everything inside Central Park along the way
(Horse Drawn carriages, a MerryGoRound, toy boat races, etc).

[Leticia]

I agree with this but although they are all near each other you might not have time to do all of these in one day.

When I go to the Museum of Natural History I usually spend around 3 hours there in order to really see as much as I can.

Central Park is a great idea, but the zoo there is nothing compared to the bronx zoo. (which def. an all day thing.

It's too bad that you're coming on Thursday cause wednesdays are free there.

Oh and the Museum is Natural history is by donation, (as little a 5 cents). I actually don't know what the rest of the museums cost.

I'm sure they'd be worth it though.
