what garages? what are thier prices? (parking at the hotel is $55 per 24-hour period)
I was actually thinking you would want to park somewhere off-island and take a taxi or a shuttle to the hotel. What you COULD do is go to one of the airports and park, then take a taxi from the airport to the hotel. It says taxi costs(1 way) are $35 from Laguardia, $50 from Newark, and $45 from JFK, so you can pick whichever one is easiest to get to (or has cheapest parking). Or you could try googling a park-and-fly service, they usually are cheaper and have a free shuttle service to the airport where you could easily pick up a taxi.
Jenn and I might end up driving there, and leaving our car in a parking place, then taxi-ing in too. (depends on if I can catch an airfare or an amway sale between now and October) So you CAN wait until I do my research and then I will pass on the info I find (I also know a few people who LIVE in the NYC-suburbs area, so I *MIGHT* try to bargain with them and see if they'll allow me to park in thier driveway, but that's a HUGE if)
I mean it when I say driving in NYC is a beech. I feel like I take my life in my hands even when I'm riding in a taxi. :p
The con is over at 5PM on sunday. I think it'd be cool if ya'll stayed with us sunday night too (plus then you dont have to drive home in the dark) Also, then if you *DO* park at the airport, all 6 of us can share a ride to the airport on Monday morning :)
