Maitaitom’s Subway Safari: NYC 2011
Electric & Eclectic New York
Our six day trip to New York had been scheduled for 2010, but canceled due to my near-death experience. We made up for lost time in October 2011, and in six nights we saw the city from every angle. Join us on our New York City Subway Safari. I hope you’re in good shape, because there’s lots of walking!
