hi everyone,
im a 25 yr old female from brisbane and in 3 weeks i depart on a US holiday. im going to be with a contiki tour group for 99% of the trip,but i do have 3 days prior to the start of the tour in NYC alone! im freaking out being in such a big,busy place by myself. anyone got any tips? i already figure i wont go out at night(unfortunately). thanks heaps for ur help.

also what is must-see/must-do in NY apart from the obvious liberty island, central park etc...also what denominations of money are quarters(25c i suppose) nickels and dimes??

ta much:)
 
I'm from the UK and I feel safer in NY than I do here. It's a lovely place. The first time I visited I thought it was going to be scarey like the movies and was so pleasantly suprised. Just be careful as you would at home and don't go wandering off into any unsuitable areas. I felt quite safe at night in the touristy areas - it's mostly tourists. The shops will be fully decorated for Christmas so you need to do some serious shopping. Enjoy the hussle and bussle of NY, you will be fine.
