new york city vacation, new york skyline

I have only seen New York City once and I desperately want to go there again. I was only eight years old the first time I saw New York City. My family was taking a brief vacation in New York, primarily to see Niagara Falls, but we also toured New York City for about a day on our way there. I remember it was wonderful. This city is so alive with energy and magnetism. I came from a very small town in Massachusetts, so as you can imagine, I could hardly believe my eyes when first taking in this bustling metropolis. We saw the Statue of Liberty, and it was so incredible to actually see something that before I had only learned about in textbooks. But I think my favorite part was watching the New York skyline as we took the ferry to Ellis Island. A New York City vacation was exhilarating when I was a child, but I think it would be even better now that I'm an adult. I would love to see a Broadway show, or Madison Square Gardens and Central Park. There is so much activity in this city that I know I wouldn't even be able to pack everything into a New York City vacation that I would want to do. I've been considering a New York City vacation for some time now, so once in a while I go online to check out airfares and hotel prices. Surprisingly, there are some great deals to be found online for cheap hotels in and around New York City. This makes a New York city vacation more affordable than I had imagined.
