Day 3 continued


We started downstairs on the food concourse and grabbed a doughnut. Then went back upstairs to see how amazing it was.










It is so huge and grand. I just think its fascinating to have the mix of tourists and commuters in such close proximity!

We looked in Piq(same as on Citywalk) and then headed over towards Madison Square park via Madison Avenue.

Can you spot the squirrel?

We thought the park was lovely with all the sculptures and the dog park!





We perched here for a while as Arron's phone couldn't take anymore photos so he sorted that out quickly.

Here we stopped to see the Flat Iron too, before walking down West 15th and across to Chelsea Market again.








After accidentally seeing Chelsea yesterday we prioritised to come back today for a proper look around and to get some food.

On the way to the Market we both stood in wet cement without realising it so speedwalked away to avoid any difficult conversations






Everywhere in the market has such delicious looking food that it was hard to actually choose a place to eat, it was also quite busy much like previously.

We went downstairs to the loos, thankful they were there!

But ended up getting food from Dicksons(upstairs). It was absolute mayhem in this place.






Ordering was straightforward but waiting for food was loud and standing by the bar area getting in people's way! Reminded me of a tapas bar.

We found a quiet place to stand in a different bar area and Arron quickly spoke to his sister.

The food from Dicksons was really tasty and filling. After we were done in here we headed onto the street.

Googlemaps helping me out again we went to join the High Kine at W16th & 10th.








We thought this was lovely, and you are only just above street level so there is an interesting aspect to everything you can see.






We started coming across the artworks that litter(not in a bad way) the walk and it is nice to see the greenery juxtaposed with the art.









We saw the famous parked cars which look crazy. Unfortunately didn't see any of them leave though.




We did come across some apartments that can be seen straight into from the Highline. Not sure i'd want to live in them but some of the places were beautiful too.







We walked the Highline right upto 30th street where we had to leave as there was building works so there was no further access.

As we were off at 30th we walked past Penn station and then past Madison Square Garden as we headed back towards W42nd street.








We got back to the hotel around 4pm and chilled out for a little while, before 5pm we popped to the cinema to book some tickets.

We went over to Bubba Gumps to kill some time. They bartender started quizzing the whole bar area here which was awesome as there was a bit of competition!



We were heading to Regal cinema tonight to see Halloween in RPX. The seats were full on armchairs with little tables, shame about the audience though.
Everyone was pretty much narrating the whole film.








Otherwise the film itself was really good and finished near 8:30.

We popped to Carlo's and had a cookie.





Super rock n roll. We were in room watching Training Day and in bed at 9:30

Step count:28588 steps
12.86 miles walked
