New York City is by far and wide the best place I have ever visited. I have gone several times, and I have never seen the same thing twice, besides of course Central Park, and the MET. I have had some of the best meals of my life, and met several interesting people. Central park is a favorite of mine, and you can see why!
Central Park, NYC
This park has wide lanes, several benches, ponds, and even a zoo! It is so calm inside the park, it is as if the city has melted away.
The MET is another NYC staple. This building houses some of the most precious works of are known to man. They have several works by artists such as Van Gogh, Matisse, and my personal favorite, Monet. The MET also houses things like mummies, stained glass, Victorian rooms, and Greek sculptures.

The MET is so large, you could easily spend a full day exploring!
With beautiful landmarks such as these to keep you occupied, it is easy for me to tell you that NYC is my absolute favorite. Never have I ever been bored there, and I have been several times alone.
I am such a fan of the Met also, Alicia! And something really cool is that they have been a leader in putting many of their art works online as digital images for people to use and share. You will probably see some images that comes from the Met website as illustrations to stories in the class. The Met and the LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art) have been two of my best resources for online images... which, if you cannot get to the actual museum, is the next best thing! :-)
