New York City Adventure - Day 3, New Years Day..

We planned a restful day today, with a leisurely breakfast and a cruise to see the Statue of Liberty. In hindsight, the word "restful" is actually NOT a word to describe the events of today!

So what have we checked off the list today?

1. Statue of Liberty - its much smaller than I expected.
2. Ellis Island - I would like to say it was interesting, but it was a bit boring.
3. Ate a chicken kebab from a street vendor which was amazing.
4. Grand Central Station - a wow building, but only really interesting if you like trains and boutiques.
5. Top of the Rock - really proud of Julie who is afraid of heights, but was bullied into going up. The views were spectacular.
6. Ate a cinamon pritzel.

Other stuff we expereinced:-
* Geocaching in NYC and met up with two other couples who were doing the same thing! (We are not the only sad people in NYC!).
* Found out that you can cash Travellers Cheques from all over the world in NYC with exception to USA ones.
* Met a lovely couple on the boat to SoL and she had a brain tumour and was making the most of her life. Really touched our hearts.
* Walked miles and miles!

Early night for us tonight to catch up on some sleep. Really looking forward to Mama Mia tomorrow evening.

Blip tomorrow.
