Unfortunately the ‘flu took its toll on a few of our travelers today, so it was lucky we had some down time in New York for them to recover.
The others went for a wander through the Big Apple!!
First stop, Time Square for a bit of people watching!!
Then onto the famous Jewellers Row, for a bit of diamond gazing!!

The Yankees were 3 to 0 down in the 7th . . . and had two on bases, with their best hitter on the night up . . . this guy coulda (shoulda!!) won them the game.
But four fouls later . . . it was not to be!!
Col got the run down on the team performance and the state of Brooklyn from his mate on the train home
Before it was off for ice cream sundaes to end off a cracker day and night!!
