Hit Your First Destination With a full belly it’s now time to enjoy your first afternoon. You’ve done your homework so you know where to go. Remember, you’re a tourist now and people watching is

always a fun activity. Don’t forget to give a good looking over to people as you pass them by and remember to document the weekend with photos.

............................................................................................................... Tourist with a Twist: Sights are all right but remember that the locals give a place life. It

doesn't matter if you’re watching newlywed couples pose for photos under the Brooklyn Bridge, an army of suits storm the subway in the morning rush, or chatting with the grandma running a local butcher shop. You'll leave with more memories if you take the time to watch the people around you.

“We’re off to Coney Island to soak up the sun and see the rusting bits of old Coney Island, as well as the new Luna Park. Experiencing it as a tourist rather than a local gave me the

opportunity to forget about being cool and just enjoy the cheesy fun it has to offer. Of course we couldn’t leave without taking a death defying ride on the Cyclone.”
