Man, I went to New York for vacation a few months ago. It was my first time there. At first I was extreamly put off, I hated how dirty the city was. There are piles and piles of garbage on the sidewalks and on roofs of buildings. After a day or so of walking around the city and visiting the sites like Central Park, Times Square, the Empire State Building, ETC. It kinda grew on me. The people in New York are extreamly friendly. They do not deserve the reputation they have for being mean and rude. I had people offering to help me whenever I just looked lost. I never even had to ask for help! Central Park is beautiful. The wax museum is the best wax museum I have ever been to. If you have never been to New York, you should definately go! I'm a big movie buff, so I was extreamly elated when I came upon two movie shoots while walking around New York, and one of them was Spiderman 3!! It was so cool!
