    Food: Crumbs Cupcakes, Argo Tea (If your a tea person) ,Also If you go down 7th ave right across from FIT there should a small fruit smoothie stand that has the BEST smoothies. Also on 7th ave right in the middle of times square there is hotdog stand with the BEST hotdogs.But besides those two places I would NOT eat at any food stands you see on the street.. you WILL get sick if you do. Also near FIT there is a small café called café 27 that is very good. Furthermore any pizza place in the city is VERY GOOD just don't use any public bathrooms they are pretty gross. Don't be tricked into eating at some McDonalds or chain store in times square they are just tourist traps with bad service. Also if you down from 7th ave toward 20th street there are a ton of cute little cafes :)

    Museums/Parks/Daytime Fun::a lot of the places you listed already are pretty good. If you feel like going further out onto LI there is an awesome aquarium in RIverHead where you can swim with sharks.Also if your going in the summer Slash Splash is also a fun lil water park. Adventureland is also a cute little amusement part (though coney island is pretty fun to) .If you are into scary stuff there is also amityvill horror house, mnt misey road , devil house,bayvill screamhouse, and if you liked jaws you can go to jones beach it is where the book is suppose to take place. Also if you wanna travel north you can visit sleepy hallow and the headless horsemans grave. Also up north you can visit six flags but its kinda far :-/ in the Li sound or the Hudson river valley you can go tubing canoeing kayaking fishing and almost any other water sport you can think of. Also the circle line cruise takes you to the statue of liberty and ellis island.. Ice skating is in Rockefeller center but you can only go during the winter. But if you like skating you can always go roller skating at united skates. My favorite Broadway shows are Wicked and The Lion King. The newest one is spiderman and I heard the effects are great! They are all pretty good but if you have kids I would not take them to see phantom of the opera or Ave Q . Also if you plan on taking pictures at the grand center station your not suppose to do that it slows down traffic and you may get yelled out. I would also visit TOP OF THE ROCK it is a really tall glass building you go in and you can see the whole city even the empire state building . its beautiful.Also you may wanna visit Riply's Believe it or Not and the Wax Museum , its actually pretty fun. Also the Museum of nature history in center park is a MUST SEE. Its amazing they have a life sized thing of a blue whale and a giant squid. Also there are other museums that change depending on the month, the Titanic museum and the Harry Potter Museum is pretty fun if its still there when you get here. If you are into sports you can also see a baseball game (go Yankees) ,basketball game, honkey game,soccer , and footboot game. They are also a ton of concerts you can prob find a list at ticketmaster.com. If you like dance I would also go see the rockettes. And if you like the circus , you can see the Big Apple Circus or ringling brothers and barnum bailey circus depending on the month. I would also check out the Bronx zoo if you like animals. Or you can go horseback ridding in northern LI or take a horse and carriage ride around center park. You can also go to a gun range and shoot a couple of rounds. And you can Trapezein eienhower park. Also there are a ton of golf courses on long island. Also in the city you can visit Radio City Music Hall. Or if you like art you can visit the MomA or the MET.Also you can take a painting class at the painting lounge.(http://www.paintinglounge.com/ )

    Shopping: Ok I know people like buying cheap stuff off of street vendors but PLEASE don't do this , most of stuff you buy from vendors is related to drugs and crime and is made in sweat shops with illegal labor. So if you get the urge the buy that fake juicy bag for $10 from that guy street just think of all the innocent unpaid child making that stuff :( But don't worry there are pleny of other stores you can get cheap stuff from. The chain stores in times square are a ton of fun like with life size dollhouse,ferris wheels,candy fountains but just rememeber just because a store is fun doesn't mean you HAVE to buy something, most of the time you can find the items for less money somewhere else.:)

    i don't be attentive to what a "solo" debit card is yet a debit or mastercard is your suited guess. They value you the each and daily replace fee with out replace value (debit) or a small value (cc 2% on transactions). travellers tests are a topic in small shops in NYC, stressful to funds. as quickly as I commute I purely get money each and daily as i desire it from the ATMs @ $a million.50-$2.00 consistent with transaction. purely verify you have money on your debit card and use that. you will discover issues are a good purchase right here simply by alter fee. in case you prefer to bypass to Broadway shows you will desire extra funds yet to do the "widespread" vacationer issues like the ferry experience, Empire State construction, cases sq., you will get via with $six hundred alright, including transportation, ingesting at smaller eating places and finding out to purchase. have relaxing on your holiday.
