Our flight left Heathrow at 09.05 and we arrived at JFK 11.15 and were out of airport by 12.00.
Had an interesting taxi ride with driver 4L39, one near collision followed by short heated discussion and a Mac truck blowing its horn, flashing lights and driving right up behind us!!
Manhattan from the Cab prior to any excitement!
We were at the CASA hotel West 45th Street early, so we dropped off our bags and went to Grand Central Station, looked around main concourse and got Metro tickets and then went to Chrysler Building lobby.
We got into room on the 21st Floor and unpacked quickly and freshened up. We had a good view with Times Square in the distance.
We were going on "The Ride" which started outside Senor Frogs so we made our way there and had something to eat. Cathy ended up being taken to the stage and winning a dance off against a much younger guy and I am sure the booty shake clinched it!
The Ride. This an hour tour around mid Manhattan with interactive stops and two great hosts onboard. We recommend for its fun and if you do it on the first evening it helps with the jet lag.
We ended the evening at about 21.00 and hit the sack,
