Today we ventured into New York City, Jay and Kelly went off to do their own thing whilst Daisy, Nanny Maureen, Cala, Jo, Murphy and I explored the city. First stop was Canal Street, China town, etc and a stop off at the Burton flagship store (for Daddy). Then as it poured with rain and I mean poured we headed for the subway to take us to Ground Zero which was very sad to see. After lunch it was a walk to Battery Park to see the Statue of Liberty (or the lady with the toilet brush as Daisy called her - thank you Daddy). Then it was back on the subway uptown to Maddison Square Gardens where the Irelands brought tickets for the boxing and Daisy. Nanny and I got tickets to Radio City's Christmas show. Then... it was on to the Empire State building before finishing off at Time's Square in ToysRUs. Daisy was brillant and never once complained about walking so much.

Ground Zero - I don't know what I was expecting but felt very sad finally seeing it having watched what happened so much on tv.

Wednesday 5th November.......was spent travelling to New York, Daisy and I left home at 2.30am in the morning and meet up with Uncle Murphy, Aunty Jo, Jay, Kelly, Cala and Nanny Maureen before heading off to Heathrow's new terminal 5. Everything went smoothly and Daisy was a very good girl on the flight. We arrived in New York at midday and made our way to our hotel which thankfully is very nice, it is in New Jersey so we over look Manhatten and set in an area with lots of restaurants and shops. The rest of the day was spent shopping in Walmart!! before having dinner and retiring for an early night in prep for our busy day ahead tomorrow.
