<p>I would let the tour guides speak for themselves, they do a great job.
Since they will take care of the campus, I might suggest a couple things off campus, mostly:</p>
<p>[Taughannock</a> Falls, Ulysses, NY](<a href=“http://www.taughannock.com/]Taughannock”>http://www.taughannock.com/)
I’d say the other state parks, Cornell Plantations,vineyard tours, but I don’t know how the weather is going to be when you visit. If you can find a way to get out on the lake that can be fun too, also weather dependent of course.</p>
<p>[Short</a> Stop Deli](<a href=“http://www.shortstopdeli.com/]Short”>http://www.shortstopdeli.com/)
Order a half-sui. Or if you’re hungry order a whole sui, they seem to be making them smaller these days. If the sui description does not appeal, try an MBC, or PMP, or some suggestion from here:

<p>If you come up with some vegetable lovers, try Moosewood, that’s a famous place in vegetarian circles. And if the Ithaca Farmer’s Market is open, my wife thinks it’s great.</p>
<p>You should check out Collegetown, that’s where many students go for fun, and many upperclassmen live. Maybe best to go on a Thurs-Sat evening? I remember the first time we cruised by there before D2 applied, she recognized some set-up in a house we passed as pertaining to something she called “beer pong”, some sporting event they play there, evidently. If you think you might be interested in fraternities, drive around some of those areas.</p>
<p>If you like live music check out what’s playing around town: [Concert</a> - WVBR.COM - Live & Local](<a href=“http://wvbr.com/concert]Concert”>http://wvbr.com/concert)
and more generally: [Home</a> @ Ithaca Events](<a href=“http://ithacaevents.com/]Home”>http://ithacaevents.com/) . Check Cornell Daily Sun too.</p>
<p>The Cornell Cinema often has interesting, out of the ordinary movies, and you can check for performances at the Schwartz center.</p>
<p>And if you want to eat:
[14850</a> Dining](<a href=“http://dining.14850.com/dining]14850”>http://dining.14850.com/dining)</p>
<p>If there’s a hockey game, and you can get in, that would be fun.</p>
