    Liberty Harbor and NYC are such a great RV destination! Every UA-camr wants to "Visit all the National Parks" - and that's great. But a place like this where you can experience something so different and still relax and sleep in your own bed - even amidst a sea of white fiberglass - is so special.

      @@IreneIronTravelsable bodied RV’rs really need the cardio that pedaling provides. 20 miles of east pedaling would burn 500-1000 calories.
      My goto bike when RV’ng is a hard tail mountain bike with gravel tires. Good on pavement and dirt.
      Pedaling should be around 80 rpm in an easy gear (no stomping).
      20 miles for exploring or short errands is easy and wonderful exercise. If I can do it at 70, you can also.
      Rent one and check it out. It would make a good video.

It's a fantastic shop that sells women's clothing, shoes, and accessories, and my good friend is the owner You can follow them on Facebook and Instagram (@laruemarche), and they ship out items to you if you can't go to the store. It is the perfect size bag for excursion days. I like to put a thin long sleeve in there for later in the evening. - Chris

    Love your channel. I was born in upstate NY, moved to Manhattan when I was five, and spent Jr & Sr High School on Eastern Long Island. I’d recommend Wildwood State Park on Long Island. It’s $31 a night ($37 total with tax etc). It has a private beach on the LI Sound in the town of Wading River. You can even take the ferry over to New england with your RV. Peter nd Ava.

    Son & his fam live in downtown Manhattan, so we go back several x a yr. We're comfortable riding the subways & buses by ourselves. Still a bit taken by all the people & constant sirens. Katz (cats) is great! Usually has a minimum 1-2 hours wait. You do not mix dairy (cheese) with meat in a NY Jewish deli.There are a lot of great Deli's but not as iconic. Even after numerous trips, we have only scratched the surface of bakery's, Deli's, restaurants, museums & sites. And yes, NYC is expensive. Pastrami is basically smoked corned beef with a little different seasoning. The RV 'park' is just a place to park your rig & sleep at night.

      The dogs stay in the RV with the AC set and food, water, bed, toys,etc. We always start the day off with about a 1-hour walk with dogs (roughly 3 miles) so they get plenty of exercise and bathroom time. We typically leave them for about 8 hours max on a big excursion day like this. 👍

    I’m not even a deli person, but MAN did those sandwiches look good! I thought the inside of Katz looked familiar and found out it’s where they filmed the infamous orgasm scene from When Harry Met Sally.

      Yes! It did get some more notoriety from that movie! The pastrami is AMAZING!
