Vaun, 11 year olds aren't trying to game lizards yet. I don't think Kona can lose with NYC, there is enough for everyone to do. If you are really trying to treat the young lad, you can do Disney with him and then you (Kona) can spend your nights trying to game the tourists. There are a lot of Europeans in Orlando during September so you might be able to procure some otherwise obscure flags.
Florida, however, may not give you the best view of what the American public is. You would get a better version of that further up the coast on the East side.
As previously mentioned, there may not be enough child focused activities for him to do.
Haha, I was in the fifth grade, but I am not insinuating this in the slightest bit.
What I am trying, and maybe failed to say, is that kids this age, before they can appreciate natures beauty, history, museums, architecture, etc, are into stuff that kids are into, i.e. places where there are other kids. I know because I have one this age. Places like the 3rd st promenade in Santa Monica, Times Sq, Washington DC, amusement parks, beaches etc. And if you are planning a tour to the US, why not see the biggest, most memorable things first?
I guess there is some value in making kids do boring/adulty things on vacation, making your kids go to a museum, historical sites, etc. To instill in them that its important. I make mine go to the museum often and she hates it now but still goes in and always gets into it, because I've been taking her since she was 2. I loved the Boulder recommendation, we go skiing/hiking/fishing every year. But with your nephew, seeing the US for the first time, go big, go see the most memorial stuff that he will remember and be able to tell his friends about.
