About 5 mins of queing at that time.

I went in October 07.

Other tips not mentioned - with all the walking it was boiling in the day, as soon as the sun went down tho it was bloody Baltic. Bear in mind the skyscrapers are huge, so you're in the sun when in central park, statue of liberty etc.

Subway is best way around city, the travel is cheap.
I didn't ride the subway at Night, not because of safety but because of my third tip below

With the time difference and all the day trips , we were zonked by late afternoon early evening.
I was up at 4 every morning, waiting for breakfast at 7. Keep some munchies in the room
cheers mate

it is normal for us to be up and out at 5am for the first 3 mornings in the US, gives us time to have a wander and a breakie before the day starts
