Darius, I am staying in Manhattan with a large group, so we should be OK. It is a bus tour, so no worries about the car and stuff. However, I know from experiance how those large groups can be and I want to explore the city in a smaller one and enjoy myself.
we drove into Harlem at night and got lost. Met some african Americans, who were as scared of us, as we were(rollled the windows half-way down in order to talk to us) but then they actually drove out of thier way to lead us out in the right direction. That was bofore Juliani took over the city and "cleaned it up" a bit.
then you were lucky, becuase Imy car got broken into the second day I was there, which has never happen to me in Canada;).
Still, just a 10 blocks away things were completely different

In all, during 5 years my car was broken into only two times :)
