Manhatten skyline

This is the view as the ferry leaves, the skyline looks very crowded and you have to wonder if there is any pace between the buildings..I made sure we walked there so we can verify for you there is. The photo's from my iPhone are not so clear, but the beauty of being able to post straight to the blog is worth it, you all get quick updates and I can then go in later..like now..and give you more information..and correct the spelling..not easy to spell when your name is Tamzin and you are typing while on the go with a small keyboard on the phone.

The empire state building

We are on the 86th floor looking out over the new York skyline..a bit windy but still pleasant. We first had to go on a ride called Skyrider..it was awful..definitely conned by the Empire State building there, we would , neither of us, have gone on that if we had really known what it was..made us feel sick...all my kids know I hate amusement park rides..I am the person who looks after the bags and reads books..not queue to be thrown around the place...ahhhh.

once up on the observation deck though it was lovely, the sky was clear and we could look out and enjoy the 360 views..
