Day 10: Hungover and no beer

woke up around 11ish very under the weather and still a bit bladdered. We arranged the meet the girls at their hotel around 1ish, took us a while to get going and slowly made our way there feeling very hungover.

On our way me and Joe bought 2 statue of liberty hats which we proceeded to wear all day long ! met the girls and went for lunch at a deli cafe nearby which was an experience , the portions were gigantic !

After this we deciced to do a bit of shopping and then the rest was sights for the girls. First stop was the diesel store where our kid very nicely bought me a very expensive pair of diesel jeans, and how nice they were, i was very touched by it !! big joe bought some as well and the girls bout some more stuff !!!! (yes more after they spent around $3k yesterday) for their blokes for prezzies, lucky blokes !!!

We aimed to get down to ground zero to show the girls so we did our expert subway hopping by now the map we knew off by heart and was easy, we got down there and walked round and then as dusk fell went to battery park to show them the staute of liberty from the city.

We had all decided by now that no beer was being consumed tonight as we were setting off very early tomorrow for the journey back, the girls made there way back to their hotel while we hit the tacky tat shops to buy our other halfs and ourselves tat gifts with NYC on it, we must have visited every one from times square to our kids hotel. We spent an hour or so in their hotel room while we had a laugh while our kid gave a fashion show.

Around 10ish we headed back to our hostel via central park so i could show them John Lennons memorial and where he got shot, we were all packed and in bed by midnight ready for the morning drive home, a great time in NYC was had even tho it was short but we had such a great laugh !
