Almost There

Well, here we are back at the hotel! Bags packed and waiting for our transfer. We checked out at noon but our bags are still here.

Today:
1. Pack
2. Out for breakfast! Nice simple breakfast from a stall in Bryant Park! Lovely sitting outside and enjoying our last breakfast aldente!
3. Quick visit to the LIBRARY! Lovely old building with a great sense of history and oppulence! Lauren quite impressed!
4. Stroll to Grand Central Station! Still saw NO trains! But a vast, cavernous building that at peak times must just buzz with commotion! Wandered about and found the 'whispering arches' Linda wanted to find! We then left and came back to the hotel to finish packing and have a shower!
5. Walk round Times Square! Lauren and Kelsey wanted some last minute shopping! Kelsey had to get her Levi jeans! Lauren eventually decided to buy something! Andrew got some.....ties! How original!
6. Fossil - To get some shopping for Mark! The staff are very friendly!
7. Lunch in a Times square diner and then a quick visit to Footlocker! Lauren was not going to let Andrew buy tainers - as he was not 20 and would not be swaggering around Turriff with his jeans tucked into his trainers! Her relief was so noticeable when they did not have his size! Kelsey was VERY keen - she thought we could share! Would they have to hop everywhere? One shoe each seems silly to me!
8. Now at hotel waiting for transfer bus!

I will sum up my trip and my thoughts once I get home! What a place! Every bear should visit here once!

Thanks for readig!
