any idea's where to go/where and how much to hire a car?

also, £350 via amsterdam sound allright, any other places to look for good deals on flights?

thanks people,

Depends what you are into.......


If another city is in mind Boston is 4 hours drive north and Washington about the same south. Phili is closer and nice to see especially if you want to run up the "Rocky" steps.

you could go to 6 flags in new jersey which is the equivalent of Alton Towers. I am probably going on a day trip to it tomorrow. There is a place called the Hamptons out on long island that has some nice beeches and is where all the rich New Yorkers go in the summer. the New Jersey evivalent is the Shore which is South of NY and in the dirrection of Atlantic City. Atlantic City is the original Vegas and does have a couple of large casinos. i would not go if you have been to vegas as it is no where near as imprssive

For not much money you can fly out of JFK to Nigara falls and maybe visit Canada.
