Getting distracted the whole day.

Honestly..., I've never been to a city that is this busy and full of huge adverts...

In the morning, we went to the Starbucks to get tea, and we were going to come back to the hotel room to leave the laptop. However, when we came out from the coffee shop, we were caught by a few shops. Then, more and more...

I was literally looking up the building and adverts while I was walking. I thought I was going to get a neck ache.

Since we carried away walking and got quite away from the hotel, we decided to stay out and do some shopping.

First, we went to GAP. I walked straight to the kids section. One of the great things about America is that the kids clothes size goes up to the size that I can wear.

Next, we took the subway to get to the shopping centre that Andy's friend recommended, called 21th Century in the World Trade Centre area. They sell designer clothes with a discount price, which is a pretty good deal. However, there are so many people... it's definitely better to go there first thing in the morning before people start messing around the place.

By the time we got back to the Time Square, it was already getting dark. Time really flew today. We headed back to the hotel to put our feet up a bit before dinner.

We went out again to get dinner. Having distracted by shops again, we finally made it to an American diner look like restaurant. There are catfish dishes on the menu. Though we've never tried it, and I was bit nervous about it, we-are-on-holiday mood made us be adventurous. They had a distinctive smell but was nicely fried and quite good. The main was the Garden salad with blue cheese source for me, and BBQ Ribs for Andy. Oooh, la la...., they were huge! Especially Andy's dish came with a corn cake, corn, mac & cheese and apple compote. Looking at them I was already feeling a bit full.

There is always a space for dessert... yes, that's right. We had New York Cheese Cake. Simply, delicious:) although I couldn't finish the salad, we've destroyed the cake. It was that good:)

Back to the hotel with a uber-full stomach and a slightly aching legs from walking, all I need now is a lying down... I can get used to this....
