Hi Michael

Someone had suggested the thing of driving down someone else's car. I thought it would be a little daft but I thought I would give it a go. Thank you so much for your information. I have looked into it a little and took on board what you have said.

Do you think its worth renting a car from NYC or should be go round NYC and DC by public transport and then rent the car before leaving for Florida? We have decided to spend 2 days in NYC, 1 day in DC thus leaving us with 2 days to travel down to Florida, visiting Charleston and Savannah on the way down.

Do you think this option is more reasonable and with regards to accommodation, do you think we would need to book in advance or would it be easy to find accommodation there and then?

Lastly, would you suggest to book tickets for like the Statue of Liberty, Empire Statue Building and so on online or would it be ok to buy on the same day?

Thank you so much for your help
