The Staten Island Ferry. Ahh, New York's "other" borough. Whether you approve of it or not, Staten Island is a very real part of New York. You want your Italian gravy at 2 p.m. on a Sunday, or a quick ride into Bayonne, NJ? Staten Island is meant to be experienced.

Blues on Bleeker Street. The blues halls on Bleeker Street in Greenwich Village are reminiscent of a Memphis nightscape. Wander in and out of bars along the street and take in the soulful sounds and a few bottles of suds.
Little Brazil. W 46th Street in New York is home to Little Brazil, one of the smaller ethnic neighborhoods in NYC, but no less vibrant. Wander down this street for your own little taste of Rio and Sao Paulo.
