I would suggest seeing:

- Grand canon
- Death valley
- Lake Tahoe
- Big Sur


Only part of our visit will be spent in the city of New York. I should have made it clearer, we intend to start in the state of New York and explore surrounding states.

I think it would be foolish to miss out on the New York (city) experience, it could be a once in a life time visit for me.
