Day Seven: Uptown walkabout, frozen Margaritas and shit food at Little Italy.

Very walkie day today. We head off at midday (James took the day off work) and head up town on the subway. We arrived at 42nd street and walked down Times Square. Very busy and very colourful. After a few photos and bargaining with a sales assistant in a camera shop for a lens cap we headed across town with sandwiches in tow to central park.

HERE IS A LINK TO HALF OF THE WALK WE DID FROM MY CYCLE AP

We visited the FAO Schwartz toy shop and the Apple store then had lunch in the plaza. After lunch walked thru the Plaza Hotel and thru the park. Central Park is awesome. Humungous! Many photos and an ice-cream we ended up at the reservoir and then walked down 5th Avenue to the subway.

Dropped in at a local Mexican restaurant The Rocking Horse for several frozen margaritas and guacamole. After which we headed to little Italy for a feed. OH MY GOD! This was the worst SHIT ever. Got stuck in a total tourist trap. Shit food, shit service, wine that was 3 years past it and then the bastards had the gaul to add a mandatory 20% tip to the bill. James arked up along with a German tourist. After a “lessoned learnt” we jumped in a cab and headed home.

Many KM’s under the belt and sore back we are home and looking forward to a good sleep (on a blow up mattress? Yeh good luck)
