1 VISIT EXCITING NEIGHBOURHOODS
Greenwich Village, SoHo, Tribeca, Brooklyn – you’ll probably recognise the names of New York’s most famous neighbourhoods. Each one has its own character, and just wandering around feels like free sightseeing. Many of the best museums are on the Upper East Side, for example, but the finest art galleries are arguably in the Meatpacking District and some fantastic nightlife can be found in the East Village. Discover your personal favourites just by exploring the city centre on foot, or by hopping on the inexpensive city subway network.
2 SHOP ’TIL YOU DROP
Macy’s, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bloomingdale’s - they’re the big-name department stores of New York that you’ll have seen in the films. But there’s much more shopping to enjoy here too, from the big homeware and fashion brands of Union Square to the catwalk designer names on chic Madison Avenue. And who could forget the city’s famous Fifth Avenue, where you can window-shop in the flagship store of jeweller Tiffany & Co?

'THAT'S NOT MY BABY'
Lying in the hospital bed, my husband Michael had tears of happiness in his eyes as he showed me a photo on his phone. 'Here she is,' he said proudly. 'This is our beautiful baby girl.'I stared at the photo and shook my head. 'No, that's not my baby,' I said. 'There must be a mistake.'It was August 2010 and I'd not long before had an emergency caesarean. I'd not had a chance to see Winnie when she arrived as she'd been whisked away for tests because she was nearly two months premature.
