2010 - Vacation - NYC tour bus

Tour buses - sounds "touristy" but it's a good way to see a lot of New York City in a relatively short period of time. For a modest fee you can get a ticket that includes unlimited hop-on, hop-off for two days as well as a 75 minute harbor cruse. With a little planning, you can use the bus for transportation, particularly for the longer distances and then home in by cab. There is a downtown tour and an uptown tour and both leave from the same area in Times Square!

There was a threat of (and a forecast for) rain on Sunday
morning but it didn't happen - just a little mist. We were
ready for it though with the rain gear provided.

Taxis and more taxis! Sometimes a necessity!!

One of our tour guides - she loves downtown NYC!

Beautiful weather most of the time!

They say to ALWAYS remain seated. If you're standing up
when the bus goes under the signal light, you become
part of the signal light! Same for trees and signs!
