Here is Susan hailing a cab. One of the more expensive but easiest ways to get around.
This is us in a cart hooked onto the back of a bike. Can you believe that anyone on a bike would even consider picking up three women with huge shopping bags? We were trying to get a taxi but nothing was available. We had 3 separate bikers come and offer us a ride. Because it is more expensive, we immediately said no to the first one and kept trying to get a taxi. When the second and third guys came(at the same time) and tried to give us a ride, we again said no but they were persistant and then started bargaining their prices. So we ended up paying the guy $12.00. Poor guy! You should have seen the leg muscles on this dude. Why didn't I get a picture of him?(I was just not on my "A-game" with taking pictures in NY...I missed too many things) But you wouldn't believe how fast he got us back to our hotel. And, honestly, we all agreed that was our favorite ride because we could see everything and it was just a fun and different experience.
Of course....the subway!! Say what you want about how dirty the subway is and anything else. But it is really the best way to get around NY. It's cheap and you get there so fast.
And don't forget the miles and miles you walk by foot in NY. These are my feet on the Staten Island Ferry. Check out my new shoes that I bought in New York. Not because I wanted to buy a new pair of shoes but because I just didn't plan well enough in the shoe part of my packing. So I made a little stop at a shoe store.
