Day 19 - New York

Thankfully the rain had gone off by the time we got out this morning. Although we did have a few showers but nothing upto yesterday. Today we did the Up Town tour hop on hop off bus, this goes round the perimeter of Central Parc and into Harlem, which neither of us have done before. We got off at Strawberry Fields, which is an area in Central Park dedicated to John Lennon, we also saw the apartment block where he lived and was murdered. We had a walk in the Park and saw Belvedere Castle which was featured in last years Smurf film!
After the tour we went up to Top of the Rock Observatory on top of Rockfeller Centre, the clouds were quite low but we still had a good view of Manhatten.
On the way back we stopped for a drink in the Irish bar that saw us through the Hurricane last year when I was with the girls! We then walked back through Time Square where we saw The Naked Cowboy!!
Tonight we had a meal in the bar across the road and watched baseball!!
