Dinosaurs and Rain

It rained today. I was not impressed.

We spent the morning in the Natural History Museum looking at the dinosaur skeleton's. they were very cool.

We then headed down to the top of Fifth Avenue - we were going to walk through Central Park, but the rain killed that idea.

We stopped first at the Apple store which was so jam packed it was not funny! Apple seems to be very popular over here!

Then we headed into FAO Swartz, one of the coolest toy stores in the world... which has the piano from the movie "BIG" in it. We watched a few people play, but I was a little to shy to have a go myself.

We continued on down Fifth Avenue till we got to Tiffany's where we had to stop in for a little look. I was a little overwhelmed with all of the beautiful jewelery they have and when they told me they had 5 floors of it I found myself quivering a little.

In the next block down was the Trump Towers, we took a quick peak inside an found a huge 5 level Nike store out the back.

We continued to walk all the way down Fifth avenue, back to Jacqui's on 10th street, man were we shattered by the time we got back.

Tonight we headed up to Harlem to see Jacqui's friend Connie's apartment and to go to an Ethiopian restaurant for dinner. The food was really nice, and the company amazing.

The cab ride home was an experience, I ended up sitting in the front seat with Bronwyn, Megan, Tony and Jacqui in the back. There were many comments made about hands in the wrong place and much commentary from the girls of the molestation of my boyfriend.

The near miss with the bus woke me up a little, but I was still more than ready for sleep by the time we made it back to Jacqui's.
