I need some tips guys. My son has requested that I take him to NYC for his birthday - which w/my luck lands on Memorial Day weekend again. Anyway I have taken him before but we never went and did the 'tourist' thing before. He wants to do the Empire State Building and see the Statue of Liberty. What is the best day to go? I am considering on taking him out of school on his actual birthday (May 22). Are these places open then? plus any other idea on where to take him? He's done FAO Schwartz and I don't want to repeat that. I was thinking of taking him to the museum instead. Think I will have time for all that in 1 day? and will these places be open on a monday?

Re: NWR- City trip
actually in my experiences the city is pretty dead Memorial Day weekend......all the people that live in Manhattan spend it in the Hamptons....so you should be ok.......it will be along day but with some determination and a plan you can do it!

Re: NWR- City trip
a museum is cool. I think you have to make reservations far in advance for the statue of liberty! check that out before you go. there is a cool resturant also called Mars 2112 in times square which he may like. hope this helps!
