Taking a bite of the "Big Apple"

Wow my first time in New York, I have always wanted to come here and can't believe how huge it is!

We stayed just off of Times Square at the Novotel (it has a fab roof top terrace bar), fab location easy to walk to everything (and boy did we walk miles).

We took in all the main sites and sounds and we visited some fab restaurants (worth doing your research in advance to find good places to eat and make reservations), the first night we ate in the area of the city called "Hells Kitchen" and we went to the famous "5 Napkin Burger" the best french onion soup I've ever had!

It's well worth buying the 3 day tourist bus ticket, this consists of 3 loops which all intermingle and you can hop on and off, we saw all the major sites incl alot of the one's tourists don't often get too, so it's well woth doing this.

We'd love to of done a show also, but just ran out of time.
