A Working Holiday...

Day 3

Tuesday 19th August

As we neared the breakfast room, we were met by a long queue, so as Graham had promised us a breakfast in a diner, we walked out of the hotel, across the road and had our breakfast watching people passing by. Robert and Lucy then went off in the direction of Central Park to visit Strawberry Fields and we returned to the hotel. I washed my hair while Graham put on his work clothes and got ready for a meeting which just happened to have fallen during our time in New York...

We met up with Robert and Lucy at the entrance to Central Park around 11.00am. It was already very hot and it seemed a little unfair that we could all dress in suitable clothing while Graham had on a suit. (His choice entirely) Descending into the hot and steamy subway we didn't think it could get any hotter - but the subway is always like that.

After that Grand Central Terminal was a cool delight, not to mention a photographer's dream. Graham met up with his colleagues under the clock at 12 noon - (how romantic) and after exchanging pleasantries we parted company. Robert went off on his own to see a selection of museums and Lucy and I after having some lunch, decided to 'hit the shops'!
