Thursday 20 July 2006 - Central Park
Said a farewell to Dexter House.... had the day to spare so what better way to spend it than chillin in Central Park. People say you'll never walk the whole of Central Park but pretty sure we did just to find a restroom! They also say the idea is to lose yourself in Central Park - we certainly did, every path we took we kept on coming back to the same damn carousel!
Got distracted by live music 'White Flag' by Dido... sounded like her singing live so went to have a nosy. Found the stage and what looked like Dido so asked some girl who was playing that night..... she listed bands we had never heard of so Ellie asked "So Dido's not here?' to which she got the abrupt reply.... 'Why would Dido be here?!' to which Ellie responded 'Coz we thought we heard her!..... "
We rewarded ourselves with an Oreo ice cream, sitting by the lake....
The idea was to stroll down 6th Ave popping into souvenier shops on our way to Times Square but got a little sidetracked when we saw a sign for 2 for 1 cocktails... time for a Sex and the City style moment with our Cosmopolitans.
Back in Times Square we came across Stardust so re-living our Uni days had to pop in! Basically an American Diner with all the waiters/waitresses singing and dancing on tables. Entertainment while we ate! (a little different to those Friday nights in Sheffield!)
Reunited with those blasted backpacks off we went to the bus terminal to get our overnight Greyhound to Niagra Falls, New York.
