Ever wanted to see New Year's Eve in NYC? Get together for the 2nd annual BCO trip to the Big Apple! I am arriving late in Newark, NJ on 12/28 @ 9:55pm and flying out 01/02 @ 5pm. Four days full of sight-seeing, fun & alcohol. LOL We can split a taxi or experience the subway.
Here's some cheap options within the vicinity:
ACCOMODATIONS: I booked with Bowery's Whitehouse Of NY hotel. (And it's a few blocks from the subway, 8 minutes on the D line, which is a straight shot to Times Square!) Most of the rooms are full in the locations I listed & completely full at Bowery's. But We can meet up daily wherever you stay in the city. $73/night Bowery's Whitehouse Of NY http://travela.priceline.com/hotel/rateSelection.do?jsk=4663010a5564010a20120527045104f7c021597575&plf=PCLN&key=h2pnb1d2&propID=27315604&resetRate=Y&LRCD=22301586&LRQ=73 http://travela.priceline.com/hotel/priceListings.do?key=h2pnb1d2&jsk=4663010a5564010a20120527045104f7c021597575&plf=PCLN
