New York Encounter by Lonely Planet
For my most recent trip to New York I had gotten a copy of the Lonely Planet New York Encounter. This book was most useful as it is not only small and handy, but full of interesting tidbits about New York City. Its small format made it easy to carry around and whenever I had a break I enjoyed reading about where we had been, where we were at present and where we would like to go next. We had to skip most of the sights (next time…), but its pull-out map was used often and I appreciated the book’s insider information.

Interesting little quiz for all New York visitors:

When I posted this quiz in December 2007, I had no idea I would be going to New York almost a year later…
New York is a great city!!

I am 44% NYC
“You may call yourself a New Yorker, but there’s no way you’re a native.”
For having been there four hours back in 1992 and then another two and a half days this past month, my rating is pretty accurate.
I love the city, but don’t know much about it.
