Gidday,
heading over the the US in August. First stop is Indianapolis to watch Stoney carve it up  [cheeky] and then heading over the NYC so the girlfriend can watch the US Open. Got 9 days in NYC staying in an apartment in Chelsea.

Any suggestions to fill in those 9 days when not being bored with the tennis?

Cheers
Craig

A big problem in NYC is there is just too much to choose from.  A little insight to your interests might be helpful.  Do avoid Outback Steakhouse :P
