3 March 2019:
Having contacted ANZ who had blocked all my cards the night before!!!!! ( I did tell them a month ago I was travelling !) we headed off for the day. Nova had her first ride on the subway and although my navigation with the up town / down town thing was a bit off the first time it meant we could tick off Grand Central station as a happy accident.
We strolled down 5th Avenue past the beautiful library ( will have to go back to take a peek inside as closed at the time ) and then went to Times Square ( chaotic as ever!) and hopped on a bus round the city. Was great to get an overview of Manhattan. So much to see & do in this amazing city.
