turbotrana Member 2,586 Member For: 21y 9m 18d Gender: Male Posted 20/01/09 12:44 PM Share Posted 20/01/09 12:44 PM There are travel books with discount accomodation coupons. They have them for all regions and you usually find them at a servo. (but sometimes hard to find). The good thing is that they have maps which show where most of the motels are and the discounts can be really good but usually not valid Fridays and Saturdays. The books give you an idea of prices and you can choose what you want to spend.I have never booked accomodation in advance in the US as there are just so many motels you will nearly always find something.And you really need a car to travel.For places to see, just buy a USA travel book. Its got it all in there. BTW, USA is the best place to travel IMO. Esp with a strong aussie dollar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Entry is $60 each, but we paid an extra $30 for Front of Line Pass. Its a bit more, but way worth it. It's basically what it is called, you don't wait in any lines.. there is a whole different line for you. All the rides, and everything you get to see there, you just go straight to the front before everyone else. You also get to stay behind and see behind the scenes and meet cast members of most of the shows.New York, we stayed at a hotel called the Pensylvania. It is on 34th and 7th. Hotel is alright, rooms kinda smallish, but have own bathrooms and we got a kingsize bed. The main thing about the hotel is location. Empire state building is on 34th and 5th, so 2 blocks down.. (4 min walk) and Times square is around 42nd street.. so 8 blocks up.. (10-15 min walk). Maddison Square Garden, is literally across the road and Penn Station (one of the central subway/train stations) is right underneath the hotel, so you literally walk out onto to the street and down underneath the hotel to get to the subway. I concur on the "Top of the Rock Observation" (rockefeller centre), awesome views.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can sell them later, but having a GPS is a must if you are renting a car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
