Zaria's been preparing for our New York City trip, despite Jason wanting little to do with the planning. No matter how we shape it, it's going to be costly, so I've been trying to figure out a way of estimating exactly how much, and figruing out a way of minimizing the costs as much as possible.
Found this today - http://albanykid.com/2013/05/15/hilton-garden-inn-staten-island-budget-nyc-hotel/ - the Statan Island Hilton Garden Inn. It has an indoor pool, plus shuttle service to the free Staten Island ferry. We've been constructing a running list of the sites we'd like to visit, and I've been checking out train costs.
It's looking like we might be able to score round trip business class tickets for all of us, for about $450. And there's also CityPASS, for about $100 per adult, and less for each kid over 6, gets you into some of the top museums and attractions.
In other travels, I am considering getting us rail passes - it seems like a fantastic way to get us across the country, for far less than traveling by car or plane, with a lot more flexibility. It's also cimpler - if we go before next April, Keena and Rowan are still free. So we would have to figure out how to feed aourselves and where to sleep, knowing that the cost of transportation would range from $669 per adult and $334 per kid - a total of $2340 for up to 12 segments.
