New York: Day One Hundred and Forty-Three - Afternoon (10 March)

We had lunch in the Heartland Brewery at the base of the Empire State Building and then walked down Fifth Avenue to Madison Square Park. It has a special play area for dogs but not for teddy bears :-(.

We also visited Madison Square Gardens, which aren't actually gardens like Time Square isn't a square. Pete Sampras and Roger Federer were playing an exhibition tennis match there that evening. Needless to say it was sold out.

Our next stop was Macy's which claims to be the biggest shop in the world. We had a good look round but didn't buy anything.


After dinner at Simply Pasta we checked the location of the New Amsterdam Theatre, because we're going to a show there later in the week.
