The 9/11 Memorial is the site of a massive international tragedy. It is not a tourist attraction. It should not be third on your list of things to do in New York. It is not a normal thing to have on your list in between “Selfie with Naked Cowboy” and “Bakery from Cake Boss.” Having the desire to buy a 9/11 Memorial t-shirt just so you can brag you’ve been there is a sign of poor character.

If you have a personal connection to the site, if you lost someone in the attacks or were personally impacted by the wars that sprang from them, by all means, go to the memorial. If you’re telling yourself you want to go so your dollars can support the families, take out your checkbook. The 9/11 Memorial is the #1 thing that people ask NYC concierges about. Again, it is something almost every guest asks about. Would you want to take pictures at a death camp, mass grave, or murder site while on vacation anywhere else? Don’t be the person who comes to us on 9/11 and asks us if there’s going to be a “parade.” Villains' Lairs Are Creepy and Impressive. Disney Villains tend to range from extremely menacing, all the way to somewhat ineffective. One thing they all seem to have in common, though, is that they have sufficiently terrifying secret lairs and hangouts.

Even the villains who are a bit bumbling or sloppy (looking at you Madame Medusa and Cruella) still succeed when it comes to their creepy casas. Scar’s Well-Lit Cliff/Cavern Place Not really a lair as much as a stage for one of the best Villains songs ever, “Be Prepared,” Scar’s spot is super spooky with its angular, jagged precipices and piles of elephant graveyard bones. Ursula’s Cave Ursula’s cave is super sinister, serving both as a workshop for her sea witchery, and as a graveyard for all the poor unfortunate souls she’s turned into weird shriveled seaweed creatures. Cruella’s House It’s actually CALLED “Hell Hall,” like she refers to it that way herself. The Evil Queen’s Dungeon This place is the most stylistically perfect Disney Villain lair.

But what about a bookish activity that’s also social (and indoors)? This week, the Paris Review pointed us towards Pride and Prejudice: The Board Game, which seems like just the ticket — if you’re a Jane Austen fan. However, what to do if you’re more of a Twainish persuasion? Never fear — after the jump, we’ve collected a whole selection of board games based on novels, from fantasy to the classics, for your perusal.

Hans Christian Andersen's 'The Tallow Candle' Unknown Hans Christian Andersen Fairy Tale 'Tallow Candle' Found By Danish Historian Esben Brage. COPENHAGEN, Denmark — For years, the somber fairy tale about a lonely candle that wanted to be lit dwelt in oblivion at the bottom of a box in Denmark's National Archives. Its recent discovery has sent ripples through the literary world because it is believed to be one of the first tales ever written by Hans Christian Andersen.

The famed Dane wrote nearly 160 fairy tales in his life, including classics such as "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Mermaid. " The tale of the candle may have been written when he was still a teen, experts say. Retired historian Esben Brage said Thursday that he found the six-page text on Oct. 4 while searching through archive boxes that had belonged to wealthy families from Andersen's hometown of Odense in central Denmark. The handwritten copy of the tale, titled "Tallow Candle," and dedicated to a vicar's widow named Bunkeflod who had lived across from Andersen's home, had been left seemingly untouched at the bottom of one of the boxes.

I can't believe how much I loved it, and that I don't usually hear people talking about it in a "you have to go there" sort of way.

Where else would you be able to walk ten minutes from your hotel, down to the lake, swim, play in the sand, meet some kids, and then walk back to the hotel, through downtown, with your swimsuit on and a towel around you. Other highlights: We loved our meal at Longman and Eagle (loud enough to go with a kid, but certainly not a place for picky eaters that need to be accommodated. We also checked out the inn they have upstairs, and it's a great neighborhood-vibe inn if you were on your own in Chicago. Definitely not a family destination--unless your kids are older, and could sleep in a separate bedroom (no adjoining rooms). We loved our meal at Publican. We were lucky enough to stay at the Elysian, which is a new-ish hotel, and is fantastic. Lovely Leaf Lace Scarf.
