Hi, i've been 7 times now, and still not done everything!!! The shopping always gets in the way of the sightseeing!
I went in October a couple of years ago, it was lovely weather. Perfect jacket weather, not cold enough for a proper coat, just something like a cardy or hoody.
October was really quiet when we went, so i'd recommend it for all the sightseeing stuff as there's less queues.
If you're looking for a bargain go in january, it's fab, my fave time to visit. All the sales are on in January so you can pick up Ralph Lauren jeans for about £10. We went in Jan last year and in 2005 and flights and hotels are very reasonable. The only downside is the weather, it was -16*c one day!! Wrap up warm and buy some earmuffs and you won't go wrong
Worst month for me was September, it had typical east coast humidity, teamed with the heat from the traffic and all the walking you end up doing I was sweaty for the entire trip :giggle:
Hope you enjoy your trip!! Wish I was going this year, it's the most amazing place.
