I did, about 15 years ago. I was a kid and it was my only opportunity to see it. I really did enjoy it back then, it wasn't too terrible. My mom and I felt safe enough to walk around by ourselves without my dad and brother for a while, and then we'd all meet up to eat and go exploring again. We went to Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, all the typical touristy things, but I didn't care. To a small 11 year old that city seemed HUGE. I'd never seen anything like it.

It was okay back then, I have fond memories, but now I would not go there unless somebody paid me more than a million dollars and also gave me pure access to every restaurant and other places that require vax passports.
