Early Arrival at Heathrow
Not many people about
Dixons Tax Free !
Argh! I could not resist :)
Relaxing before the flight
Relaxing in the ServisAir lounge. Very peaceful except for one 6 year old girl playing Mario on her DS. I should have challenged her to a head to head to show her who's boss !
Say goodbye to dreary UK weather.
Time to take off
Sunshine in NY
Very sunny and also quite cold!
Waiting...
Our speedy cab ride means our room is not ready yet. We have to wait.
and waiting...
Finally into the room.
Unpacked and straight on the Skype phone !
Our view.
Were on the top floor (40th) facing north towards Time Square.
nice :)
Out in the evening
We went for a open top bus tour of the Christmas Lights here in Manhatten, it was incredibly cold - but a very good tour non-the-less.
Christmas Lights
Getting Colder..
More Lights
Some of Macy's Shop Fronts
Incredibly popular with the passers-by.
Back To Times Square
It's now 2am in the morning (UK time) and we arrive back in Times Square after the Christmas Lights tour. We are frozen through, but happy.
First Pizza in 9 months.
The last time either of us had pizza was when we visited NY in March 2006. It tasted fantastic!
