Day 4:We woke up around 8am, we had to move the car by 9 because the street we parked on had street cleaning and we risked our car being towed. After re-parking it we had breakfast, a croissant and coffee in the meat packing district. After breakfast we went and tried to move our car back to where it was but all the places were gone, so we decided to drive down past the ground zero and drive the path that we were later going to walk down.
The day was just going to be a sight seeing day, so I will just upload a bunch of photo's to show you the sites. They are all sites that millions of tourists see every year so I wont bother to tell you much about them.
We managed to get back to Chelsea area and park up our car, while parking we got into a conversation with a jewish couple from Jersey, we chatted for half an hour about America and the UK. We then parted ways and headed towards the piers on the Hudson river, we sat and ate the last of the sub's that Auntie Zia had made for us. We sat around on the pier for about an hour, it was amazing weather so we just chilled and took photo's.
We then walked all the way down the island towards Battery park and saw some monuments, ellis island, the statue of liberty and wall street.
We walked up through China town, which was massive and Paolo was the only white guy we saw for about half an hour. After finally making our way out of China town we headed up through Broadway and browsed through the shops, nothing much to speak about. We headed over to St. Marks and had dinner. I thought I'd introduce Paolo to some Vietnamese food, Pho, its really popular here in the states and I enjoy it. Its a broth that you put noodles and beef into, and it all cooks itself up to make a brilliant dish!
The plan was then to head back and chill out for an hour, shower then head out, we both however fell asleep while watching The Office, so a long day ended without us going out! Nevermind, we have big plans for Friday!
