Last full day in NYC




We started our last full day in NYC shopping close to our hotel. We found Forever 21 which we loved. I bought a couple of pieces of knitwear that kept me warm on our last day! The other girls found some good bargains too. We then headed to American Eagle Outfitters and Victoria's Secret to get the American high street experience.

We then decided to go down town to catch the Staten Island Ferry to see the Statue of Liberty. We caught the ferry which took us past the Statue of Liberty and then came straight back.It was a lot smaller than I thought it would be, I've only ever seen it in pictures and in movies and it always looks so much bigger!

We then went to Ground Zero which was quite emotional to see.

While in down town we went to Century 21 which was like TK-Maxx but a million times worse! We didn't end up spending too much time there as it was very claustrophobic and not a nice atmosphere to shop in. A world away from the shops on 5th Avenue like the lovely smelling Abercrombie and Fitch shop.

For dinner we headed back to Times Square again and ended up going to Planet Hollywood which was like a film version of the Hard Rock Cafe. Good food though and the most amazing chocolate cake!! Makes my mouth water just thinking about it.
