New York - Day 3

Our final day in New York and rain, hail or shine we were going to make a full day of it.  We made our way to the ‘PATH’ (train station) in a light drizzle and by the time we emerged on 33rd Street we could see blue sky, first time in 2 days.  Funny how little things can make you so excited.

While the weather was good we headed to Central Park via Starbucks for coffee and 5th Avenue for a squiz.  We passed through the Central Park Zoo and the Delacorte Music Clock and archway.

We had a great lunch in a lovely outdoor café in Central Park.  We then made our way to one of the playgrounds and the kids had fun in the sandpit, on the slides and playing with the other children.


From Central Park, we headed back to the PATH via Broadway and came across a completely different looking Times Square from the other day.  We couldn’t get over the contrast there was so much activity and such a buzz about the place.

Tired kids, weary parents and one very sore right ankle we made our way home, getting on the right train this time!! and very pleased the rain stayed away.
