For bars in NYC, we went mostly to Soho and Greenwich Village.  There are loads of good bars near New York University.

The naval aviation museum was great, definately worth a visit if you're in the neighborhood. It is quite a long drive from orlando, though, if thats where youre going.

I only drove through downtown Pensacola quickly, didnt really spend time there. I flew to New Orleans and rented a car from there. I drove back to new orleans after visiting the museum.

If you're gonna be moving between NY and DC at any point, don't leave Elkton Maryland off your list of stops.

The employees.

Love the electronics, not the store.

Ok I can agree with you on that.  I love being told by a kid at a store that what I want isn't going to work and that I need this....OR....that I come in looking specifically for product X and he wants me to by Y because he has it.  That and usually they have to go and find somone who knows somthing about the products when I DO have a question.

If you want some real hell, set up a business account with them using a blanket PO for purchases.  We once checked out in about 5 minutes and we were just completely dumbfounded at the lightning fast speed and smoothness of the transaction.  It generally took 30 minutes, a supervisor or two, and us explaining repeatedly how they needed to check us out.
