Boxing Day - felt like an ordinary day. Started snowing very lightly this morning and by 1pm was snowing very hard and was settling!
Went to Central Park in the snow with Amy and Mike from the hostel, as apparently the park is beautiful this time of year. It was like a scene out of Narnia - snowing, with the street lamps lit all around us! I can't believe how much snow has fallen within such a short space of time - it's already ankle deep!
Went to the cinema in the evening to watch The Fighter and by the time we'd finished watching the film at around 00:15, the snow was even deeper - in some areas the snow was past my knees! It was so hard to walk through the blizzard. As we walked back towards the subway, we stopped in the middle of the road - in the middle of Manhattan - you could hear a pin drop it was that quiet! It was like a ghost town due to the bad weather! It was beautiful but at the same time quite eery! Just made it back to the hostel as the subway and buses had started to stop running. As we were walking through the streets we see cars and buses stuck in all the snow and people were abandoning their vehicles!
