New York Day 10

Bit of a sleep in today after our big day yesterday.  We are leaving New York tomorrow so we did some washing before venturing out.

We walked down to Central Park and caught the hop on hop off bus ad got off at Chinatown to have a look around.  Had lunch at Starbucks and then hopped on the bus again.  As we were going past Battery Point I saw Tanya Wade And Teresa Dabrowski at the sandcastle.  We had been texting trying to work out how to catch up so it was funny that in a city with so many people we actually saw them.

We got off at Pier 17 and both had a 20 minute massage, really cheap at $25, then we had a nice drink at an open air bar.  I had a Piña Colada and Annamaree had a beer.  Back on the bus and we got off at the Rockefeller Centre and wandered through the shops along 5th Avenue.  We went into Saks and I was admiring this beautiful scarf which was so fine.  Checked the price tag and it was $1250!  We went to Level 8 where they had shoes from every famous designer.   They were so expensive, even the ones that were 75% off were from $150 for a pair of casual sandals and it went up from there.  I was expecting someone to ask us to leave because we were lowering the tone!

As it was our last night in New York we decided to have dinner in one of the restaurants Ann the concourse at the Rockefeller Centre.  We had a lovely 3 course meal and then walked home.

Now we are packing our suitcases and trying not to be overweight!  We are being picked up in the morning at 6:30am to go to the airport.  Next stop - Las Vegas!

Cheers
Roz
