Went to New York for one day. Took the train because I'm not too smart. I stayed at a Hostelling International hostel. I ate at The Spotted Pig and had ramen at Setagaya.

I'll be living/working in Reno for several weeks to a few months. Would appreciate suggestions for art, culture & nature. Unique & bizarre attractions would be a plus. Also, best vegetarian restaurants, or unique restaurants where a vegetarian won't starve?
Obviously, I wouldn't be asking this if I were into gambling or searching for vanished gazillionaires.

36 Hours in Yosemite: I'll be attending a conference in San Francisco and will have most of the weekend to kill. We've already booked a hotel room just outside Yosemite National Park. I plan on seeing the Giant Sequoias, and generally just driving around. There's so much to see there that only 36 hours seems like a travesty. Alas. What are some must see things there that I can enjoy at a relatively relaxed pace in my short time there?

I tried to fit in some cultural activities between meals. I stayed in a youth hostel, took the subway from Queens to Manhattan daily ate a lot, mostly Japanese, and visited a couple museums.

I'm looking for a gift for some new Chicagoans and think they would enjoy one of the river architecture tours. Is there any appreciable difference between the competing operators? Bonus points for any inexpensive (~$10 per person) and little known/unusual Chicago experiences I can bundle in to the gift.

I will be traveling to Philadelphia in mid-July and would like to get some tips on sightseeing. The problem is that I will be training M-F 9-5pm so I'll have to do my tourist thing in the evening. Any great tips? I would like to spend most of the time taking photo's if that helps.
I found the evening Segway tours - that looks fun!

The SO and I have rented a house on the Big Island of Hawai'i in "the last authentic Hawaiian fishing village," Miloli'i in October. There is very little substantive info I can find on the web (it's mostly real estate listings). I know it is on the dry, lava side of the island and I know it is somewhat remote. Can anyone here who is familiar with this community and the area provide some tips?
FYI and FWIW, we are not beach junkies but like hiking, traditional Hawaiian culture and "local color."
Help?

I'm going to Chicago in June for a weekend. Where should I go to find the following:
- Cool neighborhood with coffee shops where I can get a copy of Illinois Entertainer and Chicago Reader
- Best music equipment store in Chicago or northern suburbs (I'm staying in exciting Itasca)
- Something unique and fun to do on a Sunday afternoon

Outer Banks, NC: Heading down there for the week (yes, last minute travel-planning). Any suggestions on what to do while we're down there? Places to stop at on the way down there from DC? (Aside from the fact we'll be stopped on 95 the whole way down...)
