Still New York was a great town, everything so recognisable. Loved Little Italy and the Brooklyn Bridge the best
I agree it's a very moving experience.
Why 'never'?

weve got the New York pass, but I am a tad worried that we'll just be knackered from walking around for 3 days solid . Am sure it will be great though
then off to Boston for a few days and cape cod
if anyone has any great suggestions for off the wall things to do, would be grateful
I recommend the following for NY:
The night bus tour
Circle line cruise, the landmarks one which is 1.5 hrs, there's a bar and food onboard
Philly cheese steak off the street vendors
Top of the Rock for views
Tavern on the Green in central park (expensive but the best food we have eaten while here)
Uber to get around (we were going to use the subway but with temperatures between 30-36c walking has been draining so an Uber XL to and from where we want to be has been great, it's cheapish too for the four of us
Times Square - just for the sheer spectacle of the lights, noise and volume of people
And for Boston, the Freedom Trail walk.
take a rucksack and fill with bottles of water! It took a day or so to acclimatise to the heat and tipping water over ourselves while out walking has become a necessity to cool down.
try and get out earlyish and do your activities, 3-5pm is the hottest time of day, not something we've been good at doing!
We're heading up to Niagara Falls on Saturday for some wind down time after the bustle of NY

oh, and you'll need more money that you think, food and drink is very expensive.
beers are typically $8 a go, and even McDonalds is noticably more expensive than UK
