Last day in New York - late flight so had time to kill. 

Finally had pancakes for breakfast!

Went to Bloomingdales and bought some black short Uggs (I know they're ugly but SO warm!)

Walked around Midtown and spent some time in Madison Square Gardens. Saw an amazing hawk catch a mouse! 

Went to Max Brenner - hot chocolates with mini marshmallows all round and a chocolate crepe.

Sorry this went up so late. Landed this morning and went straight to sleep until 2pm! 

Glad to be home, but sad it's all over!

Woke up early to go to the South Street Sea Port - had a walk around and bought a Superdry shirt. 

Had lunch at the famous (and my fave) Carnegie deli. Ridiculous size chicken soup and salt beef sandwich - pretty much every celebrity I can name has been there and signed a photo for the wall. 

Went for a walk around Central Park.

Visited Macy's department store. 

Had the best hot chocolate I've ever tasted at The Mondrian Hotel and cheesecake from Magnolia bakery. 

Dinner at The Smith - spaghetti and meatballs - delish! 

Tomorrow's post (my last one) will go up on Saturday as I am getting on a flight home at 9pm Friday so won't be able to post. Hope you've enjoyed them so far!

Woke up and grabbed a Tropicana and bagel from the deli below the apartment. 

Got the ferry to Ellis island and the statue of liberty for a bit of tourist action. 

Went to Schiller's for lunch - had a burger (best one yet!).

Did some shopping around Mercer Street - didn't really find anything today. 

Went out for dinner at Gravy - an incredible southern American meal with great wine!

Sorry for the photo overload - doing a lot of things in NYC.

Went for brunch at the Cookshop - missed the brunch menu so had lunch. An epic turkey sandwich to make up for the lack of on xmas day. 

Had some disgusting smoothies. When we asked why our OJ and mango smoothies were green they said it was the protein powder... niiice! 

Went to FAO Shwarz to play with toys. Spent most my time in the sweets section. 

Lip balms for every different sweet flavour! 

Bought some bits from Forever 21 and some regulars from Sephora. 

Went to Motorino pizza. Yum!

Got a drink at the highly recommended Fat Cat bar. Atmosphere was like an underground student bar... loads of different random sofas and chairs jammed into a warehouse style room - live salsa music - over 10 ping pong tables, 3 shuffle boards and about 10 pool tables. Grab a ticket and wait your turn... You can also sit around and play UNO, scrabble or chess. So weird, but so cool. Everyone just goes to get drunk and play games! 

Rained a lot today, fingers crossed for sun tomorrow!
