New York: Day One Hundred and Forty-Five (12 March)

Today we bought a hop on/hop off bus ticket and explored the North part of the city, including Harlem. We joined the tour on Eighth Avenue and the guide was so witty we opted to stay on as far as Central Park Zoo.

From there we walked to Lexington Avenue to visit New York's other famous department store, Bloomingdales. It was very expensive so we didn't buy anything but we did have a smoothie and a piece of cheesecake in Forty Carrots Restaurant on its 7th Floor. New York is famous for its cheesecake too. It's unusual because it's baked.
