Bring a kayak out onto Green Lakes if you can - the water is so clear you can look straight down at boulders, tree roots, fish, and ducks as if the lake were glass. Paddling close to the shoreline turns this into a wonderfully peaceful outing rather ...
Green Lakes State Park
The Everson is an easy, genuinely fun museum stop, even if your travel companion usually skips art museums. I'd make time for the exhibitions and seek out the docents - you may end up in one of those wonderfully unexpected hours-long conversations th...

LUMA's Urban King Bed Studio is a smart Times Square base when you want the energy outside but a comfortable place to reset afterward. The king bed, accessible bathtub, blackout shades, and continental breakfast make it a particularly practical choic...
LUMA Hotel Times Square
The Harriet Tubman National Historical Park is worth visiting for the storytelling as much as the historic buildings. I'd make time for the curator's animated, interactive account of Tubman's life, then linger around the beautifully kept grounds and ...
