I know there is already another thread relating to this topic, but it looks like Gaby & I are going to be pinch-hitting for Jan next weekend (go easy on us, please!)
No one can hold a candle to Jan's expertise of New York City, but I thought it might be a good idea to try and get an approximate head count, so here goes: Who's planning on joining us?
I'll be there Saturday. Lisa, I know you're planning on coming, too, as are Gaby and Kristi. Are you still in, Di? That's all I know so far!

Di, so sorry to hear about your back. I know just having a backache can be a royal pain, can't imagine having ruptured discs. Hope the chiroprater can help. Surgery is a real bummer to have. Keep us posted, please! DEE

[glow=red,2,300]Update![/glow]
We're going to kick off the day with a meal at one of Cher's favorite places: Serendipity III, the address is 225 E. 60th Street. Wherever you are coming from (a hotel, the bus station, the train station, etc.), plan to meet there between 10:30 & 10:45, so we can get into the restaurant without having to wait hours on line.
Gaby & I are S L O W L Y trying to put together a few ideas for Saturday afternoon, but after lunch, we can figure out which places we'd like to visit. Gaby had a great idea about taking double-decker bus tour, which will hit on the highlights of the city; we'll do some research on it over the next few days and get back to you about it.

No, I haven't been to NY yet Kris.. I know I will be in awe of everything.. I was wondering about the bus tour, that's only if that's decided what to do, does it stop to take pics and things? I will have my camera ready and hopefully I will have my new Cher totebag that I got off ebay, looks cool and can't wait to show you guys..

Im not completely sure if it stops for pics... but we can get on and off at different spots and lookaround and take pics and do stuff then just get back on whenever we like all day if Im not mistaken. I could be wrong but thats how I understood it. Looks like a fun way to see alot of things! Cant wait to see yer totebag. Sounds really cute. I think im making a cher shirt to wear that day. I might! Well Im off... going back out! talk to everyone soon!

Looking forward to seein you again, Kristi! That 15-minute "hello" at the fair last month just wasn't enough time to get acquainted.
You've gotta have some of the chicken with that Frrozen Hot Chocolate, too, it's delicious! Gaby forwarded the bus link to me, so I can check it out, too.

Have the hot dog, Kristi, you can "sample" my chicken. The portions there are really big (as you already know), so there's plenty to go around!
Yes, the bus tour looks like fun, and it does look like we can get on/off whenever we want, which would work well if we see some place we'd like to visit longer. They also give you a map/schedule of pickup/dropoff points, too, and that will come in very handy.
Great to see you back here, Di, looks like the meds are doing the trick! Have a good time tonight, really hope to see you next Saturday!

The bus tours all look to be pretty flexible in terms of spending time where you'd like along the way, so that shouldn't be a prob. We're just trying to decide which one to take. It sounds like we can pick one up around the Times Square area instead of pre-purchasing our tickets online. That'll work out better since we don't yet have a definite number as to who all is going. So, Kristi, you're going for the ft. long hot dog again? I think I'll only be able to get down the Frozzzen Hot Chocolate. Those things are massive! Di, sorry to hear about your back. If you can't make this one, I'm sure there will be many more to come.

Yepper FUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!! ;D Hey, I was reading the tourbook to see any ideas and was wondering did anyone take that virtual ride at the Empire State Building on the 2nd floor? It's suppose to go through Coney Island and stuff, can't even remember what else.. Sounds really cool!!!
