Trip from Galloway to New York City.

An early start to drive to Tom River Park and Ride from New Jersey Transit to New York City. Left Marriott Fairway Resort at 8.05am arrived at Tom Tiver town / city at 8.50am worked out Howe to pay the US$2 parking fee, then purchase a Senior return ticket to NJPort Authority Bus Terminal in W42nd street New York. It seemed to work well and even better as I left the building the 137 Bus arrived. It was nearly full coming from Atlantic city and I sat next to a lady who makes this trip each day.

The trip was uneventful although the traffic crossing through the Lincoln tunnel was extreme and at a walking pace. The JJ Port Authority building is an immense structure with buses arriving at about 6-8 gates and parking bays on each floor. We arrived in 319, which will be the return departure point at a time of likely 3.17pm.

I walked through this immense building to find my way out onto W41 Street and purchased a Hop on hop off bus ride through Top View.


There was a 5 minute walk to the bus pick up and I chose to do Time Square last. I walked passed the New York Times building and boarded a bus at the first stop. It was 10.38am and already hot. Fortunately , I did bring my golf sleeves and applied sun cream. The ride took off with a packed bus and we passed by the Empire State Building, which was a short walk down the street.

We continues on slowly through the various districts.
