Sometimes I think taking a taxi ride in NY can give you a real impression of the place before you start treking around by foot and boy do you do some waking in New York, those Sex and the City girls would have major blisters and bunions if they really did wear Monolo's every day! oh to own a pair!
So pumps were my shoe of choice to trek the streets of NY, my sister wore a slight heel, good on you girl! though they weren't made with Mr Blahnik's fair hands unfortunately, he's on my wish list, not him himself his shoes anyhow I digress....
These are some of the Taxi views....
Having a well needed Apple in the BIG APPLE after a morning at the Rockafeller centre.
We decided to go up The Rock instead of the Empire State Building to see NY, Mum had seen a program about it and how you could see more of The Park from the view and although it's lower than the Empire State the good thing was you could also see the Empire State ...
We had attempted to visit the day before but had been evacuated, scary as we didn't know what to do, we ended up in the underground shopping area of the centre and we walked and walked to find an exit and ended up miles away from the Rock, so we went back to get our money back and try again another day.
The weird thing was when we got there no one knew it had happpened only our lift (elevator) was evacuated and if it wasn't for the fact everone from the lift had stayed together I'm not sure they would've beleived these crazy English!
When we did get there the next day it was well worth it and I think better than the Empire for the views of the Park and I love the park....
After this we shared wonderful Pancakes and Cinamon toast at the cafe in the Rockafella Centre where the ice rink usually is in the winter, I don't know the name but it was great and the Orange Juice was served in fab glasses I want some of these!
Then as we were in New York...we hit the Shops! well it would be rude not to......more next time!
