Colleen & Tom's Explorations
Today we took it easy. After brekky we walked down to the subway and worked out how to obtain tickets using our credit card and a touch screen. We caught the subway down to City Hall and walked over to Ground Zero where we took photos and read all all the information boards. They have a list of all the heroes, including those on the plane that crashed in a paddock. It was 45 mins late leaving the airport, otherwise it would have been successful in its mission.
We were going to go to Century 21 discount shopping centre, but today and tomorrow are Jewish holidays so it was closed!! As are all the gold and jewellery shops! So we walked up to Canal Street and bought a few things. We caught the subway up to Central Park and returned to the Hard Rock Cafe so I could get a t-shirt. We walked back to our hotel, freshened up and then discovered the most amazing food shop - you choose what you want in a stir-fry and they cook it for you. Or you can choose lots of different hot foods or cold foods, and serve yourself. They then weigh your selection and you pay.
The we came back, ate our lunch, sorted our luggage, and RELAXED before heading out to explore again to find dinner. We found a lovely park with a waterfall, tables and chairs - absolutely stunning.
New York is really warm and humid. It rained last night and a couple of showers today but heavy rain is predicted for tomorrow - the rain is coming from the hurricane in Florida.
