So Day 3 we took a walk up to the Flatiron building, which has been the centre piece in many a film and TV show (Spiderman and Veronicas closet to name a few). After that we carried on up the road, stopped at some shops on the way and headed to the Empire State Building - which is bizarre cause you can’t actually see it until you’re right on the street! We went up to the top in what must be the fastest lift ever. Either that or they are lying and its not actually 80 floors up!
The views from the top are damn good, you really can see all of Manhattan, as well as New Jersey! We spied some good sights including a parade down below, parks, our hotel. There were pigeons on the top too, who would have thought they flew up that high.
After the empire state building we went to Macy’s for some shopping, though I didn’t buy anything, then carried on up to Times Square, which is much bigger than I thought it’d be, and soooo bright!! We did some of the shops there, including the Toys-R-Us which has a Ferris wheel and giant Barbie house inside!!
We went for steak at a well recommended restaurant Virgils, where we ate loads of meat, mmmm, before heading back for the night.
