And today, 29,882 steps!

So, pretty much the same as yesterday.

Today however, we had intended to head down to Ellis Island but it was raining a bit, so we walked up to the Upper West Side, past the mighty fine American Museum of Natural History and across Central Park to the Metropolitan Musem of Art.

This is our third trip to New York but we had never been to the Met. This time, why not?

Why not indeed, the Met was excellent. There is only some much art you can take but we checked out the fine architecture, the Egyptian artefacts were fascinating, the American art interesting enough and to add icing to the cake, there were some really good impressionart pieces by Vinnie Van G, Degas and others.

So, that was cool and glad we went to the Met.

A wander through Central Park was in order and with some low cloud or mist, combined with the beautiful blossoms on the trees, this was really cool.

We checked out FAO Schwartz, the toy purveyors and then onwards to Tiffany's, for our (seemingly) annual trip to the jewellers.

St Pats Cathedral required a quick stop off and then across the road to Rockefeller Building(s).

For dinner, tonight, we ate at a great Mexican restaurant on 9th Avenue, Lime Jungle. Really good food, very fresh and tasty...plus, cheap. Way cheaper than Australia where locals and tourists alike are ripped off on a daily basis.

A quick wander down to Times Square to view the omnipresent Sean John billboard, massive as always and then back to Shake Shack for a delicious frozen custard. Sounds average, tastes brilliant!
