How long did you live in NY? I've always wondered why New Yorkers love the city so much. My favorite TV show, Seinfeld, is based on NY. I would like to go to Papaya King and the restaurant where the famous When harry met sally was filmed

We spent almost six years in New York State. We lived at the Thousand Islands region which is by the northeastern shore of Lake Ontario. It's quite far from New York City, at least six hours by freeway.

I actually didn't like NYC. I mean it's okay to visit. But, I wouldn't live there. It's dirty. Many of the side streets stink. Plus, it's a very expensive place to live in. Come to think of it...... I find Metro Manila more fun than NYC if it wasn't for the traffic.

Cath, you should visit New York City when you get a chance. It's a much safer place than the New York of Seinfeld. Of course, you have to go to Times Square. They show Seinfeld on channel 137 (sky). :-)

Four (five if we count the clueless kid) brains working together and we can't figure out how to get a huge, heavy computer desk inside the house. I mean we got it out of the house before back in 2008. But, none of us can remember how.

We decided to leave the desk in the garage.

^^^ That's a real pain bro... Trying to find out what you did right six years ago... Same house I suppose?

When in NYC, visit the magical Central Park (it is an advantage if you know how to bike) and try the Sabrett hotdogs in the area... You'll be disappointed with the latter....

... it is nyc style of robbery...

Yup. Same house. My guess is the kitchen door leading to the garage was changed. Upon closer examination, we noticed it's now a pneumatic door that's narrower. I don't recall the door having a pneumatic mechanism. The lock is the same one we remembered. But, it's loose and doesn't quite fit the current door. Our previous tenant(s) must have done something to the previous door and then replaced it.

We still have friends and relatives in NY and NJ. So, we may do the occasional visit to NYC in the future. But, the tranquil Thousand Islands region will always be my favorite area in NY. Besides Lake Ontario, the region is close to Canada with both Ottawa and Montreal within a short driving distance.

It depends where you stay in NYC. We stayed in my aunt's place across the Central Park for a month, and it was wonderful.

NYC has so much to offer: history. culture, shopping, sights, and food.

You get to understand why people love this city so much.

* Jun -- I feel your pain as far as moving. In the last 3 years we moved two times coast to coast. We do miss some aspects of being in the northeast. I miss being close to NYC..dangerous place for my wallet!

Manhattan was okay. It's elsewhere in the metropolitan area I had some concerns with.

Dakota Apartment bro???? (West Central Park)... Wow!!!

I kept wondering what BGC was. I looked it up online and it's Bonifacio Global City in Taguig. Is that the same one which has the SM/mall that opened last year?

Just wondering because my niece has a condo in one of the high-rises there.

I wanted to stay at the Thousand Islands region. But, the rest of the family don't. I think the last straw for them was enduring the long and frigid cold of last winter. We had snow and subzero cold from October until well into April. I didn't mind. I love the cold.

Google Maps is sheer GENIUS! It even shows all the options for public transportation AND the schedule! WOW! It shows hotels and restaurants around the area too! You could plan a whole trip abroad with just google maps and trip advisor!

Central Park Snowball

The opposite East Central Park, 3 blocks after the 5th Avenue Apple Store.

People in NYC are very polite and helpful. The city offers so much to visitors.
