I'm pretty sure we're driving. Don't want to spend the money on a train ticket and we might swing by Philadelphia.

As early as possible! Every hotel has early check-in ... if the room's not ready, your luggage will be left with the valet until it is. You can get there at noon, drop the car, eat lunch and sight-see.

Phila is a day trip by itself. (It has a small but good Chinatown, for instance.)

BTW -- tolls and parking cost more than a RT ticket from Amtrak at Iselin NJ, to say nothing of the risk of something happening in NYC to one of your good cars. Parking tickets start at $70-150, and once a car has a ticket it can be towed at any time, for an extra $250 towing charge, plus possible damage from the tow trucks. (Don't say you weren't warned.)

I think I can safely guarantee that if you drive in this time, your NEXT visit to NYC will be by train, bus or plane.
