The Sights in a Day
Start things off at the American Museum of Natural History ( Click here ) ,
where you can zoom through outer space in the planetarium or gaze at the reas-
sembled bones of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Afterwards, walk over to Zabar's ( Click here )
to pack a gourmet picnic hamper.
When the weather's in your favor, fill the rest of the day in Central Park (
Click here ) . Spread a blanket on a patch of green, then take in the park's myriad
sights, like the Bethesda Fountain, the Central Park Zoo and the Great Lawn. Pause for a
drink at the Loeb Boathouse ( Click here ) , then hire a paddle boat for a quick jaunt
around the lake.
As the sun begins to tuck behind the fortress of highrises lining the four corners
of the park, it's time to head to Lincoln Center ( Click here ) - the city's unoffi-
cial headquarters for performance pursuits - to visit the city's other 'Met', the Metropol-
itan Opera House ( Click here ) . Enjoy a late-night dinner at one of the neighborhood's
all-star eateries, such as Dovetail ( Click here ) .
