Things to do in New York City

http://www.newyorkontap.com/thingstodoinnewyork.asp Performance art, when well conceived and executed, can engage its audience unlike any other medium. As a result reviews of performance art tend to employ a range of adjectives as varied as: "captivating", "challenging", "voyeuristic", "enlightening", "erotic", or "harrowing". However it is that one feels about a given piece, the point is always that you do actually feel something. Whatever else can be said of it, performance art does not lend itself to ambivalence.

New York is packed with fun things to do, and you can't go wrong with the classic attractions: rowing boats in Central Park, kissing at the top of the Empire State Building, eating oysters at Grand Central.

Cruising New York style on Carnival Glory

IF the best thing about visiting a city is the moment you leave it then it sounds like the trip’s been a failure. http://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/travel/usa-long-haul/cruising-new-york-style-on-carnival-118424
One of the great things about visiting a new city is wandering around, getting lost and discovering things for yourself. For example, you head to Soho , Nolita , the West Village , Williamsburg , you'll find tons of boutiques that you'll love. That said, here are 10 amazing stores not to miss... 1. John Derian (East Village) might be my favorite design store of all time. His signature decoupage plates and paperweights feature flowers, frogs, ships and gorgeous typography, and the shop feels like an elegant aunt's Parisian apartment, filled with striped rugs, scented candles, cheeky art books, woodblock prints and colorful quilts.

Best Jeans of the Moment - Best of New York Shopping 2011

http://joannagoddard.blogspot.com/2011/09/hidden-playground-in-manhattan.html I've lived in New York City for ten years, and I've had a baby for more than a year, but the other day I stumbled upon an amazing hidden playground that I had NO IDEA existed. When you walk into Battery Park City, you see rows of tall apartment buildings. But if you walk behind the building 22 River Terrace , there's a cluster of big trees. They don't look like much, but if you head into them... ...you'll reach a clearing with a sandbox, splashy fountains, and giant slide! It feels like you're in the middle of a forest, and the 14-foot-tall slide feels surprisingly steep.
