So I put my foot in it by saying we should go to the US for a holiday this year.
A decent move, that.
The only stipulation from SWMBO is that we must visit San Fransisco, other than that we thought New York would be the first stop and that 2 weeks is the maximum we can both have off from work.
Ideas? Destinations? Hotels?
What time of year?
You could get a package to go to NYC *anytime* from London and the city is pretty usable all year round. The museums are heated
If you really *must* go to SFO, I'd just go there and leave NYC for another week-long trip. OK, you might be able to nest a ticket from NYC to SFO inside a London-NYC round-trip ticket without getting killed, price-wise, but, as others have said, not sure I'd take on both coasts in 2 weeks.
What do you like to do? Walk around the cities or drive around the countryside? If the latter and you can get a decent deal on a hire/rental, a trip I have steered some folks to is to leave SFO and then drive the Pacific Coast from Crescent City, CA to Coos Bay, OR, then head north to Portland, Seattle, then Vancouver, BC and come back south via Victoria, BC and Washington's Olympic Peninsula.
The southern Oregon coast is the nicest stretch of coast I have ever driven. Not too many RVs even in peak season, but definitely more relaxing in May-June and September-October.
