There is an endless supply of fascinating sights to see in New York. We all know there's more to NYC than just the Statue of Liberty and Times Square. Each time we meet, we'll pick a new place (based on that location's tour schedule) and explore! There is also an endless list of events, and we will do varied things from Shakespeare in the park,
