Does anyone have any driving tips for travel between Albany, NY, & Staten Island, NY? I'm leaving Albany at 6AM tomorrow (6/20), and I expect I'll hit the Island at around 10AM (Google maps says 3hrs 8min. - is that even realistic?). I'm headed toward the southern end of the Island (Richmond Ave) first; should I anticipate any heavy traffic, and if so, how bad will it be? After a few stops, I'm headed back to Albany at around 5PM, departing from the northern tip (Richmond Terrace); how's the traffic at that hour? Any tips to avoid the bulk of any traffic delays? Thanks a LOT for any help!

NNJ/Staten Island: I recently got engaged and my fiancee and I would like to book a hall for our wedding reception. We're planning on May/June 2006 and need space for 200-300 people. She lives in Staten Island (surrounding areas OK). Any suggestions?
