Marcy,
It sounds like you have a wonderful trip planned. What hotel are you staying in?

i have family all over Queens and the Island. Used to have family in the Bronx too but have since moved in with other family because they could no longer live on their own.
I used to work at the Bronx zoo and got to know the area quite well since i had a car and my co-workers wanted rides home

its not so bad
