We Need Your Help!!!

Now that the intinerary is firmed up, air tix are almost bought and the RV in Europe is reserved, we could use some help finding some places to stay in the following places. Some preferences - family-friendly, not too far from attractions but not too close to obnoxious tourist crowds, and inexpensive if possible (but we understand that large, major cities are expensive.)

* New York, NY
* London, England
* Hong Kong
* A resort in the Philippines (safety is a priority, but experiencing "real" culture is also good)
* Bangkok and throughout Thailand

Of course, advice on ANYWHERE we plan to go is appreciated!
Thanks in advance!!! :-D

Here's Our Latest Intinerary

It feels like it's been quite a few months since I posted our intinerary and things have changed a bit. So, here's where we are going as of today:

Feb 22: San Jose/San Francisco, CA to New York, NY
Feb 27: New York, NY to Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Pick up RV for 8+ weeks and camp from The Netherlands to France, Spain, Italy and Germany.
Drop off RV in Amsterdam and go to London for a couple days.
May 6: London to Hong Kong, SAR
(Maybe up to Shanghai for a few days)
May 11: Hong Kong to Manila, Philippines
May 20th: Manila to Bangkok, Thailand for 2 months

Here's where the dates get fuzzy....
Somehow travel (air/land) down through Malaysia for a week or two.
Indonesia for 2 months.
Fly to Sydney, Australia for 2 weeks.
Rent an RV in New Zealand for 2 months.
Maybe stop off in Fiji, Tahiti or Hawaii on the way home.
And if all goes to plan, we should return back to Santa Cruz right before Christmas.
