Day 1 Conquering Manhattan

After an early start and a wonderful breakfast at the hotel, we decided to drive into Manhattan. With our Sat Nav charged up we took a drive and found a $40 a day parking (which was far cheaper than us all getting the bus and we weren't tied down to times).

A very hot day! The morning was spent relaxing on the boating lake in Central Park (whilst Lol rowed). Wethen walked into Times Square and took the subway to the sea port. We walked over the Brooklyn Bridge (and back again). Taking loads of photos.

We ended up at the Stage Deli for supper and a share of a couple of humongous salt beef sandwiches.

We have arrived back at the hotel Knackered! and are going to crash.

We are still barred from Facebook at the hotel and that means I cannot received wall or messages. I can receive ordinary e-mails. This blog automatically feeds into Facebook.

Oh yes the girls and I have decided to adopt a few people everyday. Today was Louisa the woman that makes the pancakes at breakfast. A jolly New Yorker who looks like she has been plucked from a sitcom. Secondly, Gay man in the park with Bison Frise dog (who showed us the way to the boating lake). Finally, nice Jewish woman on the subway who told us some places to go!

Watch this space for more adoptions!!
