What are some fun and different from the regular touristy things to do in NYC?

Im looking for something to do tomorrow in NYC if it isn't raining. I am originally from Hoboken (right across the Hudson from NYC) and have done the touristy things for years when I was younger. Ive been to all the major areas and would like to figure out something a little different to go to this time. Any suggestions?



Also...I dont know if there is anything like this in NYC especially on a Sunday, but I would love to go to some sort of flea market type place. Just something with random but yet cheapish things or trinkets to look at and maybe buy.What are some fun and different from the regular touristy things to do in NYC?

The same people that run this also have a market in Chelsea, which also has some really cool antiques (its on the same website). They actually offer a shuttle between the two.



It's a blast!!!! Have fun.
